Deleting a dataset
In Cloudera Data Visualization, you can delete a dataset without removing the data from the database.
-
On the main navigation bar, click DATA.
The Data view appears, open on the Datasets tab.
- Find the dataset that you want to delete, by either scrolling through the list or using the search function.

On the row that represents the specific dataset, click the Delete
(trash) icon to delete the dataset.
In this example, the Cereals dataset has been selected, which contains 1 visual.
The Delete Confirmation modal window appears.
It contains information about all related dashboards and linked and unlinked visuals that will be deleted with the dataset:

After you reviewed the listed dashboards and visuals, type DELETE in the
