Delete a metric

Updated over 3 months ago

🚨 To be able to delete a metric, it must not be linked to any indicator.

Case 1 : You just created a metric and you finally want to delete it.

Dashboard > "Metrics" tab > Hover over the metric row > Icon 🗑️

Case 2 : You want to delete the metric, but it is linked to an indicator.

In this case, you will first have to delete the indicator (as seen above) in order to be able to delete your metric afterwards.

Without removing the indicator, the icon will not be displayed on the metric line.
This avoids the inopportune deletion of a metric used for the calculation of an indicator.

Case 3 : You want to delete a metric linked to an indicator because it is not/no longer the right metric.

1️⃣ Retrieve the identifier of the new metric to associate: Dashboards > "Metrics" tab

2️⃣ In the indicator formula, replace the ID of the metric to be deleted with the ID of the new metric: Dashboards > "Indicators" tab > Click on the indicator row.

🔎Once the identifier is changed in the formula, the metric is no longer linked to this indicator.

3️⃣ Delete the metric: Dashboards > "Metrics" tab > Icon

⚠️ This manipulation is more easily carried out on metrics linked to a single indicator. If the metric is linked to several indicators, the manipulation will have to be performed for each indicator.
