There is a channel that is no longer useful for our organization but I am fairly new to slack so haven't figured out how to delete it. Can you only archive or can it be completely deleted?
I am using Slack on mobile.
When you click into the channel and click the name of the channel in the thread, options will come out. You can then archive it. There is no delete option listed and I am guessing this is based on your user settings. Perhaps the slack administrator can delete but normal users can only archive.
1. You must be in the channel you want to delete.
2. Click on the "gear" icon to the left of the Search box.
3. Select "Additional options..." from the menu
4. Click the last option "Delete this channel"
5. Check the box "Yes, permanently delete this channel"
6. Click "Delete Channel" button.
This should resolve the issue, unless your IT department has somehow revoked deleting channels for your profile?

Verify that you have access to the channel...
Proceed with care.
From your desktop, open the channel you want to delete. You must join the channel if you haven't already.
Click the gear icon to open the Channel Settings menu.
Select Additional options, then Delete this channel.
Check the box next to Yes, permanently delete this channel, then click Delete Channel.
You can: Archive the Channel — the channel will go silent and can be unarchived when it's needed again (but everyone will have been removed if you had folks that joined).
You can also RENAME the channel if you don't think its current stated purpose is useful any longer.
Hope this helps!
