Learn how to add Atlassian Analytics to a site and understand what you need to query data and create charts.
Delete and restore columns, tables, and schemas
You must have permission to manage the data source to delete or restore columns, tables, or schemas.
If there are columns, tables, or schemas that you know you’ll never need to query, you can remove them from your data source.
As a reminder, removing columns, tables, and schemas from your data source in Atlassian Analytics does not affect your original data source.
When deleting a column, table, or schema, you’ll see a list of charts currently using it. If you delete a column, table, or schema that’s in use, the queries of the charts using it will break and show errors. Read more about how to resolve schema difference in your queries.
You can restore any deleted columns, tables, or schemas at any time. Refer to the instructions later in this page for how to restore them.
