How do I edit or delete a status update?
Open the service, select Updates, then Edit or Delete on the update. This works for 7 days after the update was posted.
Before you start
- You are a member of the service with any role.
- The update is less than 7 days old. Updates that belong to an incident follow the incident's window: they can be changed while it is open, and for 7 days after it was closed.
Steps
- Open the service and select Updates.
- Select Edit, change the Status or message and select Save. Or select Delete and confirm.
