I’m working in Palantir Foundry and have noticed several deprecated functions still appearing in context menus. These functions were originally linked to code repositories that have since been permanently deleted.
I’m looking for a solution to clean up these functions, without access to the original repository. Is there any way to permanently remove these references or clean up the legacy functions in Foundry?
They are listed in ontology manager, but there is no way to delete them from there as functions are read only in ontology manager. They simply show as “failed to load source”, but are still persisting as context menu options in applications such as vertex.
Oh sorry I see your code repositories have been deleted. In that case, have you used Workflow Builder? We’re launching a new feature to let users bulk delete functions that should be on stacks within the next week or so!
Hi thanks so much for your response. This looks like exactly what I’m after!
I noticed the documentation lists workflow builder as beta functionality. I’ve tried ctrl + i in several workshop applications and it is not opening. Is this something that needs to be enabled on our stack?
Hi yes, you can enable it by going to the Control Panel app https://www.palantir.com/docs/foundry/administration/control-panel/
Under Application Configuration you should be able to find workflow builder (and if you don’t have permissions then I would ask your platform admin to help turn it on)
I have the same issue and can’t delete unused functions. I can’t even see delete in workflow builder. I thought deleting project would clean everything (May be we need to introduce a warning or something so people will aware of what they are doing).
Okay brilliant this worked for me - that’s a great resource / tool to have more generally for development as well.
Thanks for your support - all legacy functions have now been successfully deleted on my end and they are no longer in the ontology manager, or the respective context menus.
Hi @RajKarri this was a new feature so depending on your stack you might not see these changes until a week or two after (it’ll be on FE version 6.372.0 if you know what version of Workflow Builder your stack is on!)
