Removing smart variables

Support
1

Hi all,

Is there a way to get Foreman to remove smart variables that are associated
with a module when the module is removed or is there a way to delete more
than one smart variable at a time? I've been adding modules to test, but
after removal I see the variables are still there and they're no longer
associated with any module.

Thanks,
Gareth

Bump - I'm intested in this also.

Thanks.

You can go to Configure -> Smart variables search for "puppetclass = "
then delete them one by one. There isn't an option to delete all at once
this way.
Using the API to find and delete all of them might be a better option.

I get 178 pages of orphan variables … So I will write a script that uses
the API :slight_smile:
Thank you!
