    Article summary

    Axonius - Remove Custom Data from Assets removes a custom field from assets returned by the selected query or assets selected on the relevant asset page. For list fields, this Action can also be configured to remove specific values from a list.

    See Creating Enforcement Sets to learn more about adding Enforcement Actions to Enforcement Sets.

    Note:

    Required Fields

    These fields must be configured to run the Enforcement Set.

    • Action name - The name of this Enforcement Action. The system sets a default name. You can change the name.
    • Configure Dynamic Values - Toggle on to enter a Dynamic Value statement. See Creating Enforcement Action Dynamic Value Statements to learn more about Dynamic Value statement syntax.

    • Field name - Type or select from the dropdown, the custom field name from which to remove the value.
    Note:
    • This action shows all existing custom data fields except for adapter labels.
    • The behavior of removing custom Asset Fields is identical to removing custom Complex Object Fields.
    • Action condition - From this dropdown, select one of the following:
      • Select Remove Entire Field to remove the entire field from all relevant assets.
      • Select Remove Specific Values to set specific values to remove from list fields. When you select this option, the Field value box appears. Enter the values to remove from the field. If the original tag in the system starts or ends with a space, it will be removed from the system, even if you enter it without a space.
    Note:

    • When you select Remove Entire Field:

      • If the selected custom field doesn't exist on the asset, the action succeeds.
      • If the selected custom field already exists on the asset, its value is removed, and the action succeeds.

    • When you select Remove Specific Values:

      • If the field is a Date field, you must enter the UTC value.
      • If the field doesn't exist - the action succeeds.
      • If the field is not of the type List - the action fails.
      • If the field does exist, but the value that you want to remove doesn't exist anymore - the action is marked as success.

    For more details about other Enforcement Actions available, see Action Library.
