You can delete a data file (or link) and associated metadata, if the following criteria are all true: 

  • Your user account has the group administrator role. 
  • You created that data file. 
  • That data file is less than 90 days old. (This criterion does not apply to links.)


To delete a file or link: 

  1. Log in as described in Logging In via the GUI. The Dashboard appears.
  2. Browse for content as described in Browsing for Data via the GUI. The Browse page appears.
  3. Navigate to and right-click the data file you want to delete. Click View Details. The Data File page appears. 
  4. On the Data File page, click the delete icon ( The delete icon. ). A message appears, prompting you to confirm the deletion.
  5. Click OK. By default, the system performs a soft deletion. The system retains the file for two years and then permanently deletes it. Only DME system administrators can perform immediately permanent deletion.

To request deletion of data you did not create or older data, contact NCIDataVault@mail.nih.gov.
