In this video, I show how to delete processes and objects that seem as though they cannot be deleted because they must be retained for audit purposes. While it is true that you typically should not delete components in Blue Prism, there certainly are times that this is okay to do. I show that one solution is to archive or delete the session logs for the sessions of those specific processes or objects that you want to delete and then you’ll be able to delete them. I do think it is important to consider just retiring the processes and objects instead though.
