Hi Balša,

Deleting a project in Vercel does not automatically remove its past deployments — they remain in your account history. To clean them up you need to delete them manually:

From the Dashboard :

1. Go to your Vercel dashboard.
2. Open the Deployments tab.
3. Find the deployments linked to the deleted project.
4. Click the … menu next to each deployment and choose Delete.

At the moment there’s no “bulk delete” for deployments of a deleted project, so you’ll need to remove them one by one. Once deleted, they’re gone permanently and won’t appear in your dashboard anymore.

Hi Selcuk,

I appreciate the quick response!

There currently isn’t a … menu option next to each deployment; also, when I click on the deployment, I am redirected to a 404 page since it is trying to lead me to a project that was deleted.

Is there another way maybe?

If the dashboard doesn’t show the delete option and deployments redirect to a 404, the alternative is to try removing them via the Vercel CLI:

1
vercel rm <deployment-id> --yes

You can list all deployments with:

1
vercel ls

If the CLI approach also fails or the deployments remain inaccessible, the next step is to open a support request with Vercel so their team can clean up the orphaned deployments for you.

Unfortunately, the CLI cannot delete these few deployments.

I think it is because the project was deleted and it treats them as non-existing.

Hi @balsabazovic-1951, could you share the team ID and project ID with me so I can take a look?

Hello Anshuman,

Sounds good; I’ll provide the IDs below.

Here is the team ID - team_Wu6ebNlsCfOPC4E68DQfCxL0

Here is the deployment ID - FPkdGfzq7b7ZS4Q5mfQndmNgCfmr (this is the ID I get in the URL)

I hope this helps.

Thanks!

Hi @balsabazovic-1951, I get a 404 accessing the deployment ID you shared. Can you confirm if you can still access it? If yes, could you share the URL?

Solution summary

To fix orphaned deployments, you must contact Vercel Support directly at vercel.com/support for manual removal from the database. Neither the Vercel Dashboard nor the Vercel CLI can delete these records once the parent project is removed, so you should provide support with the specific deployment URLs or IDs for cleanup.
