Delete a Field Count Check
Step-by-step tutorial for permanently deleting a Field Count check. Only archived checks can be deleted: archive the check first, then delete it from the Archived tab.
Permission Required
You need the Author team permission on the datastore to delete a check. See the Permissions page for the full matrix.
Before You Delete
Deleting is not the same as archiving
Archiving pauses the check: it stops being evaluated by Scans, its anomalies are kept (unless you choose to delete them), and it can be restored at any time. Deleting is permanent: the check, every anomaly it produced, and the tag associations and linked tickets on those anomalies are all removed and cannot be recovered. Flows themselves are not deleted; they simply stop seeing results from this check. If you only want to pause evaluation, archive the check (or set it to Draft) instead.
Both actions take effect immediately: no Scan or other operation is needed.
The Delete Check dialog summarizes what is removed before you confirm:
| What happens | Effect |
|---|---|
| Anomalies | All anomalies generated by the check are permanently deleted. |
| Tags & Links | Tag associations and any linked tickets for the check's anomalies are removed. |
| Downstream Triggers | Flows that fire on this check's results stop seeing them. The flows are not deleted or edited. |
Steps
Step 1: Select the source datastore from the left menu, click the Checks tab, then switch to the Archived tab.
Step 2: Locate the archived check, open its Settings menu , and select Delete . The Delete Check dialog opens, summarizing what will be permanently removed.
Step 3: Click Delete. A success message confirms that the check and its anomalies were permanently deleted.
Restore instead
Until it is deleted, an archived check can be brought back: open it from the Archived tab and click Restore to reactivate it, or Restore as Draft to bring it back paused.
