Deleting a Code Insight Project

Project Administrators can use this procedure to delete any of their projects. When a project is deleted, the following components are deleted:

• From the Code Insight database—The project record and all scan results, inventory (including top-level inventory and any direct and transitive dependencies), alerts, tasks, and user audit work associated with the project.

• From the Scan Server—The project’s codebase files.

To delete a project, follow these steps:

1. As Project Administrator, perform either step:
   • Navigate to the Summary tab (see Opening the Project Summary Tab), and from the Manage Project menu, select Delete Project .
   • Navigate to the Projects view (see Opening the Projects View), right-click the project in the project display, and select Delete Project .
2. When prompted, select Yes to proceed with the deletion. The project deletion process is added to the Jobs queue with the message in the upper right of the current screen: “Project will be deleted in the background with the job ID: <jobId>”.

   • If the Scan Server associated with the project is temporarily inactive or is disabled, a pop-up is displayed to inform you that the server is down. The deletion process does not proceed.

3. To view the status of the project deletion, open the Jobs queue and locate the job ID. For instructions, see Monitoring the Code Insight Jobs Queue.
