Delete Metadata

Using this execution mode, you can remove all metadata.

The following metadata objects are covered:

  • Repository
  • Subset
  • Synchronization profile
  • Output maps
  • Input maps
    Note: When you specify metadata as repository, all the other objects in the repository are also deleted.
Note: To keep the latest version of metadata and cleanup metadata change history, ​use the delete metadata version mode. This mode does not purge records. It only purges the history for metadata.

Additionally, you can specify and delete the data source.

You can purge metadata of repository even if the repository has records. In such a scenario, you can first remove all the records followed by the metadata for repository and associated objects.

Chained purge supports repository deletion even if the repository is not empty. As the repository is being purged, if purge detects any records in the repository, it first purges all the records. After the record purge is complete, the repository is purged. You can purge one after the another as a foundation of enterprise delete.
