# Deletion

## Deleting Metrics

* Only Owner status will give you the ability to delete a metric
* You can delete a metric in the **Data Hub**, tab **Metrics**

## Metric Dependencies

{% hint style="warning" %} <mark style="color:orange;">You can only delete a metric when it is not referred to by any documents or any other metrics. This is to ensure the accuracy and consistency of the data on the platform. Deleting a metric that is referenced by other components can lead to data inconsistencies and errors, which can affect the overall functionality of the platform.</mark>
{% endhint %}

If your metric is used in a Doc, an pop-up will show you the Doc name and you can navigate to the Doc to remove the metric from the Doc:
