Delete a Member or Collection (Master Data Services)

Applies to: SQL Server - Windows only Azure SQL Managed Instance

In Master Data Manager, delete a member or collection when you no longer need it. If you want to delete members in bulk, use the staging tables instead. For more information, see Import Data from Tables (Master Data Services)

Note

You cannot delete a member if it is used as a domain-based attribute value for another member.
