Required Editions

Available in: Salesforce Classic
Available in: all editions
User Permissions Needed
To remove topics from a record:

Read and Edit on the record

AND

Assign Topics

Removing topics doesn’t delete them. Before you remove a topic from a record, consider whether someone else added it; they may be using the topic to track the record.

  1. On the top of the record detail page, click Topics.
  2. Click Remove topic next to the topic you want removed from the record.
  3. Click Done or press ENTER.

Removing a topic from a record removes the record from any list views using that topic as a filter. If Chatter is enabled, the record is also removed from the Records tab of the topic detail page.
