Remove Executions from the Database - Controlled Procedure

Remove Executions from the Database - Controlled Procedure

Removing executions from the AIQ database should be treated as a controlled administrative operation. Execution records can include report history, evidence, logs, and troubleshooting details that may be required later.

Required checks

• Confirm the exact execution IDs or date range to remove.
• Verify that stakeholders no longer need the related reports or evidence.
• Create a database backup or snapshot before any delete operation.
• Use supported AIQ retention or cleanup features when available before changing database tables directly.

Safe workflow

1. Run read-only queries first to confirm the target records.
2. Export any evidence that must be retained.
3. Perform the removal during a maintenance window.
4. Verify that current executions, reports, and dashboards still load after the cleanup.
5. Record what was removed, when it was removed, and who approved it.

Warning: Do not remove executions with open-ended conditions such as unrestricted dates, empty filters, or unverified IDs.
