AI Studio names a thread from your first message. Rename it when that name stops describing what the thread became.
Rename
- Open the thread.
- Select More options at the top of the page.
- Select Rename, type the new name, and confirm.
In the read-only view opened from the Threads page, select the title itself to edit it, then save with the tick.
Delete one thread
- Open the thread, or find its row on the Threads page.
- Select More options at the top of the thread, or the row menu on the Threads page.
- Select Delete and confirm.
A confirmation reads Conversation deleted successfully. Deleting cannot be undone. Export anything you need first: see Export a thread.
Delete several at once
- Open the Threads page.
- Tick the threads you want to remove.
- Select Delete in the toolbar that appears, then confirm.
If it did not work
- Rename is missing: you are not the author of the thread. Only the author can rename or delete it.
- Failed to delete: reload the page and try once more.
- A deleted thread is still in the sidebar: reload the page.
- You deleted the wrong thread: it cannot be recovered from AI Studio. Contact Support.
