Deleting a Device

Deleting a Device

A device and all its stored data can be removed from the application by deleting the device.

Device Dependencies: When a device is related to other instances, such as assets or devices, through a lookup field, it becomes a dependency for those instances. To delete this device instance, you must first resolve these dependencies by removing the device from the associated instances. Only after these dependencies are addressed can the device instance be removed.

All Device operations require necessary permissions. Refer User Profiles document for more details.

To delete a device, 

1. Access the End Application.
2. Select Devices > Devices in the left pane. This will open the device list view.
   
   
   
   
3. Select the box near the device name you want to edit. For this illustration, we will delete the device: GW ST001
   
   
   
   
4. Click the Delete button that appears.
   
   
   
   
5. Click Check Dependencies in the Delete Validation pop up.
   
   
   
   
6. Click Delete in the Delete Device pop up.
   
   
   

The device and its data will now be removed from the application.
