Hello, I was wondering if there was a way to remove attributes that are no longer relevant / being updated?

To remove unwanted attributes, you’ll need to remove the attribute from all profiles. As soon as no one in your Peoples list is using the attribute, it will be effectively removed. You can remove the attribute from profiles in bulk by:

  1. Using our API to update every profile in your account to have a null/empty string ("") as their value for the unwanted attribute names, or
  2. Using our CSV import feature to overwrite the attribute data with empty values.
  3. Using an Attribute Update in a campaign to remove the attribute. Read more on how here.

If any of the deleted attributes belong to profiles that have been deleted, please note that they may take 24 hours or more to completely disappear from your account.
