DataHub

Hi team, I am wondering, do Datahub plans to add features that can delete entities from UI in the near future? Or is there is any reason that not having it?

Good question! We should be able to add support for this in the three dot menu in the top right. Is this a contribution you’d be interested in adding?

Soft-deleting already can be done through the api and search though!

Also you can use the `delete` action in bulk updates on search results to soft-delete based on a search query. So if you can construct a search query for the entities you want to delete you can delete via bulk edit in search :slightly_smiling_face:

Thanks Gabe, your information is very helpful. Yes, that feature is exactly what we are interested. We have a lot UI only users and sometime, when they wrongfully ingested an entity, they wish they can make a quick correction on that.

The API you mentioned is OpenAPI not CLi right?

you can also do this through the ui :slightly_smiling_face: simply search, select, delete
