Hi Aaron,

Thanks for the feedback. Based on what we have seen so far, this is a feature we are going to look at adding to a future version of TeamPulse.

For right now, if you have not entered any data into the projects and have nothing to lose from deleting them, you could uninstall and reinstall TeamPulse, this will drop the current database and create a fresh one. Hopefully this helps you out.

Also, to play it safe, make sure to deactivate your install of TeamPulse before uninstalling.

Kind regards,
Jesse Dyck

Hello Siingh,

Deleting a project through SQL is definitely doable, but there is some work involved due to triggers and constraints. In an effort to help the community between now and when we get a release out which includes the functionality via the UI, we have created a script to allow you to manually perform this action.

To use the script, you will need to know the Project ID of the project you wish to delete. This can be retrieved via the URL in your browser when the project is open. For example, when open to the Dashboard I get a URL like this:

http://localhost:9898/#/Project/3/Dashboard

In this case, the Project ID is 3.

To run the script, open SQL Server Management Studio and create a new query. Paste the contents of the script from below, then take the Project ID value and replace the placeholder text PASTE_PROJECT_ID_HERE with that integer value.

WARNING: *** This script is run at your own risk! Telerik is not responsible for any loss of data that may occur! ***

You are encouraged to perform a full database backup prior to running the script, as modifications cannot be undone!

USE TeamPulse
