Delete an Is Replica Of Check
Deprecated: use Data Diff instead
The Is Replica Of rule is no longer maintained. Data Diff replaces it with the same row-by-row comparison plus change-type filtering. This page is kept as a reference for checks that already exist; new checks should use Data Diff.
Step-by-step tutorial for permanently deleting an Is Replica Of 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 are not deleted with the check, but any flow that fired on this check's anomalies stops receiving them. 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 | Any flow triggers tied to the check's results no longer fire. |
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.
