Delete target

You may need to delete a target if it's no longer in use, has been decommissioned, or needs to be removed for security or organizational reasons. Deleting a target helps keep your environment clean and ensures that only active, relevant targets remain in your Invicti Platform.

warning

When you delete a target from your Invicti portal, the associated FQDN isn't immediately released back into your license pool. This is intentional and governed by the licensing policy. Refer to Understand FQDN usage in Invicti Platform for more information.

Follow the steps below to safely delete a target.
