How to delete a document from user document in qmc?

 

Hei,

I accidentally published a document to wrong path, then it landed to the root of cluster, outside of 'user documents'. See picture.

Now I fixed the task, the newly published document goes to the correct place.

The remaining question is, how to delete the one generated by mistake? I didn't find the document from server as well...

I studied the previous posts, but couldn't figure out a good solution to solve my problem. Thus, asking for help!

 

Best regards,

Susan

Remove the document from the path, and it will disappear from the QMC.
If there is any CAL assigned to the document, make sure to remove them before deleting it.

You can't remove it from the QMC. You have to delete (or move) the .qvw file from the file system.

Hello,

 

from which path we need to remove them ?

if we remove from source path then it will remove actual file right?

You need to delete it from the mounted document path. The folder that it is distributed to not the source folder. Pease make sure you de-allocate any licenses assigned to the document, like @Daniele_Purrone was mentioning.

Have a look at article How to Fully Remove or Decommission an Application from QlikView Server/Publisher for steps.
