Delete a Bundle

You cannot restore a bundle that you delete. You can only recreate its configurations in a new bundle.

You can delete a bundle if it meets one or more of these criteria:

  • Isn't used in any Dynamic Bundles actions in any Web experiences
  • Is used in Dynamic Bundles actions in Web experience drafts or paused Web experiences

You cannot delete a bundle that's part of an active Web experience.

Determining How a Bundle Is Used

You can quickly find how a bundle is being used in two places in the Monetate platform:

  • The bundle's Delete modal that you access by selecting Delete in the additional options menu (...) on the bundle's configuration page

  • The EXPERIENCE USAGE column on the Dynamic Bundles list page

    Callout of the EXPERIENCE USAGE column for the table of bundles on the Dynamic Bundles list page

The Active designation indicates one of the following states:

  • The experience is active
  • The experience has a scheduled start date and time
  • The experience's scheduled end time has passed

If you see the Active designation, then you cannot delete it.

The Inactive designation indicates one of the following states:

  • The experience is a draft
  • The experience is paused

If you delete a bundle that's part of an inactive Web experience, then the Dynamic Bundles selector in the action template once configured with the now-deleted bundle reverts to its SELECT THE BUNDLE state.

The Unused designation appears if the bundle isn't used in any Web experiences.

Deleting a Bundle That's Unused or in Inactive Experiences

Follow these steps to delete a bundle that's not used in any Web experiences or is part of inactive Web experiences.

  1. Click COMPONENTS in the top navigation bar, select Product Recommendations, and then click the Dynamic Bundles tab.

    Callout of the Dynamic Bundles tab on the Product Recommendations Overview page

  2. Place your mouse pointer in the row for the bundle that you want to delete, and then click the trash can icon when it appears.

    Callout of the trash can icon on the far right-hand side of a row for a bundle in the table on the Dynamic Bundles list page

  3. Click DELETE in the modal.

    Callout of the DELETE button in the 'Delete Dynamic Bundle' modal for a bundle that isn't used in any experiences

The Dynamic Bundles list page loads, and a message confirming that the bundle was successfully deleted briefly appears.
