# [Organization] - Organization Stacks

This page explains where to find the Organization Stacks list in Contentstack, what information is available there, and how Organization Owners or Stack creators/owners can delete a stack. Use it when you need to manage stacks at the organization level or permanently delete a stack.

### Organization Stacks

Under the **Stacks** tab of the [Organization Settings](/docs/owners-and-admins/organization-settings-overview) page, you will see the list of [stacks](/docs/developers/set-up-stack/about-stack) created under the Organization.

To access the Stacks settings page, you need to perform the following steps:
- Log in to your [Contentstack account](https://www.contentstack.com/login).
- Select the Organization from the dropdown on the header, and click on the “Org Admin” icon on the left navigation panel.
- Click on the **Stacks** tab.

Here, you will find the following basic information related to the stacks:
- **Name**: Name of the stack
- **Owner**: Displays the name of the stack owner
- **Email Address**: Email ID of the stack owner
- **Users**: Number of users added in the stack
- **Created At**: Date and time of stack creation
- **Actions**: Allows you to delete a stack

From this page, you can only **Delete** a stack.

## Delete a Stack
