# Close a group

Group owner can close a group from the context menu at the top right corner of the group page. Group members are informed about group closing with a notification.

When a group is closed, content cannot be shared with it any longer. But closing a group will not delete it. Closed groups are still visible across SignSpace UI, only marked as CLOSED, and they can be used as reference to find information.

In the **Home** tab sidebar they will appear with a crossed out icon.

All closed groups are listed under **Closed groups** filter in the sidebar of the **Groups** tab.

Closed group can be reverted back to active by a group owner.
