Reset or Delete a Corpus

If you decide to stop using a corpus you have three options.

  1. Disable: Disables query or indexing requests. A disabled corpus can be reenabled at any time.
  2. Reset: Purge all the data within the corpus, but leave the corpus definition intact.
  3. Delete: Purge all the data within the corpus and delete the corpus. All your connected services to the corpus will also cease to function.
