Once you have your dataset object, you can use it to [access available collections](/datasets/concepts/collections) for the dataset.

## Deleting a dataset

Datasets can be deleted through the [Tilebox Console](/console) by clicking the `Delete` button in the dataset page.

Empty datasets will be deleted right away. A dataset is considered empty if none of its collections contain any data points.

A non-empty dataset can also be deleted, but is a destructive operation.
Every data point in every collection of the dataset will be deleted.

As a safety measure, Tilebox soft-deletes the dataset for 7 days before permanently deleting it.
Please [get in touch](mailto:support@tilebox.com) if you deleted a dataset by accident and want to restore it.
