# Removing Sources from an Import Session

1. **[Add Sources to an Import Session](https://kb.cloudnine.com/adding-sources-to-an-import-session?hsLang=en)**
2. Expand whichever **Custodian** contains the desired sources by clicking the ![CaseDashboardImportExpandCustodian](https://kb.cloudnine.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Knowledgebase%20-%20Explore/CaseDashboardImportExpandCustodian.png?width=18&name=CaseDashboardImportExpandCustodian.png) button.
3. From here, you can remove sources in the following ways: 
     1. Select any top-level source(s) you want to completely remove, and then click the **Delete Sources** button. This can also be done after sources have been committed.
     2. Click the **edit...** link under the **Folders** column for any top-level source to open the **Folder Selection** window. From here, you can exclude individual sub-folders from that source.
   
   | ⚠️ | Once sources have been committed to a custodian, the **edit...** link changes to a **view...** link, and you will be unable to change sub-folder selections. |

4. Within the **Folder Selection** window, use the check-boxes to deselect any individual sub-folders that you want excluded, and then click **OK** to save any changes.
   
   | 💡 | Once sources have been committed to a custodian, the **Folder Selection** window becomes read-only. |

5. When you're finished removing sources, you'll be ready to take the following actions as desired:
   
     1. **[Change the Import Session Label/Name](https://kb.cloudnine.com/changing-the-import-session-label/name?hsLang=en)**
     2. Click **Start Import** at the top-right to begin importing any uncommitted sources.

| 💡 | Once the import has started, all sources will become permanently committed to their respective custodians. |
