You can delete a distributed Release Bundle version from Edge nodes without deleting it from the source Artifactory that performed the distribution. This operation is known as a Remote Delete.
To perform a remote delete from Edge nodes:
In the Application module, select Artifactory > Release Lifecycle. The Release Lifecycle dashboard is displayed.
Click the name of the relevant Release Bundle to open the kanban board.
Select the Distributions tab.
Click any of the cards for the relevant Release Bundle version to open the version timeline. For example, if you want to delete version 1.0.0, click the 1.0.0 card under any of the Edge nodes.
From the Actions menu, select Remote Delete.
Select the Edge nodes from which the Release Bundle version should be deleted and click Delete.
The Release Bundle version is removed from each selected Edge node. An event is added to the version timeline for each node.
Note
To delete the Release Bundle v2 locally from the source Artifactory, see Delete a Release Bundle (v2) Version. In contrast to Release Bundles v1, this operation cannot be performed using JFrog Distribution because all Release Bundles v2 are created and managed by Artifactory.
If the Release Bundle v2 is deleted locally (that is, directly) from the Edge node, an event is added to the version timeline of the source Artifactory.
Perform Remote Delete using the REST API
To delete a distributed Release Bundle v2 version from one or more Edge nodes, use the Remote Delete Release Bundle v2 Distribution REST API.
