There are several ways to delete a policy in the Policy Manager:
  • For included policies (i.e., policy fragments), you can delete it directly from the service policy. This removes the policy and all its assertions from that one service policy only.
  • For all policy types, you can delete it from Policy Manager. This removes it from the Services and Policies list and makes it unavailable for use in any service policy.
Deletions may take up to 15 seconds to take effect.
Consider disabling a policy instead if you think you may need it again in the future.
You cannot delete a service policy unless you first delete its associated published service. For more information, see Deleting a Published Service.
To delete an included policy from a service policy:
  • Delete the "Include: <fragment name>" assertion from the policy. For more information, see Deleting an Assertion. You cannot delete individual assertions within the fragment; you must delete the entire fragment. 
    To remove individual assertions within a policy fragment, you should edit the fragment instead.
To delete a policy from the Policy Manager:
  1. Right-click the policy icon in the Services and Policies list and then select Delete.
  2. Click Yes to confirm.
(1) You cannot delete a policy that is still in use in any service. (2) You can delete only one policy at a time. If more than one policy icon is selected in the Services and Policies list, only the first will be deleted.
