Delete applications

When you delete an application, Contrast permanently removes all of its associated findings, such as vulnerabilities and libraries.

Licenses applied to applications permanently count towards the number of maximum allowable applications. Deleting a licensed application has no effect on the number of licenses you are allowed to apply to applications

Before you begin
  • Optional: You can reset the application before you archive and delete it.
