Hi Dojo,

we only use a couple of child elements and would like to delete the rest. Is this possible?

Hi Stefan,
It will be interesting to know the connector that your are using to generate DVE elements. As far as I remember this is a functionality that needs to be implemented in the connector (disable the creation of DVE for a specific row in the table that export DVEs).

Hi Stefan,

Yes, it is possible. Typically the parent element contains a table that manages the creation and deletion of the child elements. You just need to perform the following steps:

  1. Go to the parent element (DVEs are typically named with the convention <Parent element>.<Child element>) and find the table that manages the devices. The primary keys of the table should correspond with the name of your exported child elements.
  2. The table should have a column called "Export DVE" or something to a similar nature. It should contain a toggle button for each row with "Enabled" or "Disabled".
  3. Toggle the child elements that you don't need to the "Disabled" state. This should remove the child elements from Dataminer.
