Delete a Data Connector

User can delete an existing data connector using this option.

Remove an existing Data Connector from the platform. Deleting a connector will break any downstream assets (Datasets, Data Stores, Data as API, Dashboards) that rely on it—review dependencies before proceeding.

Prerequisites:

  • Access to Data Center → Data Connectors.

  • Permission to delete the selected connector.

  • (Recommended) Update or migrate dependent assets to another connector.

Steps

  1. Navigate to the Data Connectors list page.

  2. Select the Data Connector you want to remove.

  3. Click the Delete icon for the selected connector.

    • The Remove Connector dialog opens.

  4. Click Yes to confirm.

Notes & best practices:

  • Irreversible: Deletion cannot be undone. Consider taking configuration notes/screenshots first.

  • Dependency check: Identify impacted Datasets / Data Stores / Data as API / Dashboards and repoint them to a new connector before deletion.

  • Access control: If the connector was shared, removing it also removes access for recipients.

Troubleshooting

  • Delete icon disabled or action denied: You may lack delete permissions; contact an admin.

  • In-use errors: Some environments may prevent deletion if critical jobs or APIs actively reference the connector—stop or reconfigure those first.

  • Downstream failures after delete: Rebind affected assets to an alternative connector and re-test.
