Hi @Sanat Gupta welcome to the Atlassian community.

In order to delete a project, you first need to delete all the repositories pertaining to that project. Only then you would see the "Delete button".

Here are the related links to refer before you delete the repositories:

https://support.atlassian.com/bitbucket-cloud/docs/delete-a-repository/

https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Bitbucket-questions/Cant-delete-Project-that-has-no-Repositories/qaq-p/1535991

Stay safe and stay healthy.

@G subramanyam I have two projects, both of them are empty (all repositories are deleted). But when I try to delete the project nothing happens (no error, nothing!).

In the Web developer console (Firefox) I see a 403 response:

`{"type":"error","error":{"message":"Non-empty project deletion forbidden","detail":"Please make sure that the project is empty before deleting it."}}`

But as already mentioned there's no repo any more :(

What can I do?

 

P.S.: One of the projects had a few Mercurial repos that I never deleted, but that are now invisible. Nevertheless I should be able to delete a project with all it repos (visible or not) at once.
