Delete a config type
Deleting a config type is irreversible. Once a config type is deleted, it cannot be recovered. Deleting a config type is only possible if there are no config instances for that config type. As such, most config types cannot be deleted. If no config instances exist for the config type, deleting a config type removes all associated schemas. To delete a config type, click the ellipses of the config type you want to delete and select Delete.
