hi team,

 

There is a scenario I need to delete 75 attributes in windchil

This is tedious and can we have a bulk deletion loader or how can it be done through build deployment?

Hello @SS_10574885 

You can use load from file method.

Here is an article describing how to load attributes to the system. 

CS30168 - How to export and import soft types and attributes using 'LoadFromFile' in Windchill

If you import one attribute, and system contains additional attributes then the method generate XML file in a Windchill/temp folder for deletion the additional attributes.

You can use the load from file method to load the generated xml to delete the attributes.

    Hi @HelesicPetr 

    Approach you have suggested only delete the attribute created in type  Is it possible to delete the attribute created in Manage Reusable Attribute via LoadFromFile  ?
