HI @manojkulkarni

Go to Data source,

In the actions, you can delete the qvd.

Hi @MayilVahanan,

I was searching on Qlik Cloud the options you mentioned but couldn't find them. I am a Tenant Admin and a Developer and loading data via Qlik Data Transfer. Is this possible only with Shared Spaces?

I haven't created one yet, but it seems strange to me that removing an unwanted data source must be this non-intuitive...

Thanks for your answer!

Hello all,

Did anyone find a way how to delete QVDs from Data Space?

As those data spaces become a huge mess when neither subcategories/ folders nor Erase option is available....

Hi Severina. You can only do it via load script. Click on the connection and click the rubbish bin / trash can next to the qvd you want to remove.

If you want to do bulk delete best to look into what you can do with the CLI or maybe this is something possible with the new automation functionality.
