Delete archived flags

After you archive a flag, you can delete it if you no longer need it.

If you delete a flag, its rules will be deleted. Should it be requested again, the fallback value defined in code will be returned for all contexts. Remove any references to the feature flag from your application code before you delete it.

To delete an archived flag:

1. Navigate to the Flags list.
2. Click Filters. In the "Lifecycle" section, click "Archived." The archived flag list appears.
3. Hover on the flag you wish to delete, and click the three-dot overflow menu that appears.
4. Click Manage flag settings. The flag's Settings tab appears.
5. In "Delete flag" section, click "Delete this flag." The "Delete this flag?" dialog appears.
6. Type the flag's name or key in the confirmation text field to confirm.
7. Click Delete.

The flag is deleted permanently.
