This guide explains how to edit a Phantom’s setup or permanently remove a Phantom from your workspace. You’ll also learn how to avoid issues when deleting Phantoms that are used as part of a multi-step automation.
Update a Phantom's setup
You can edit a Phantom at any time to change:
- The data you’re working with.
- Its launch behavior.
- How often it runs.
To update a Phantom:
- Go to your Dashboard and find the Phantom you want to update.
- Click the three dots on the Phantom card and select Setup.
- Make your changes, then click Save & close.
Your updated settings will be applied immediately. If the Phantom is scheduled, it will follow the new behavior from the next launch.
Delete a Phantom from your workspace
Deleting a Phantom will permanently remove:
- Its setup and configuration.
- Past launch history.
- Any saved result files.
Before deleting:
- Export any important data from the Results tab.
- Check that no other Phantoms depend on it (especially if it’s used in a chained setup).
To delete a Phantom:
- Go to your Dashboard and find the Phantom you want to delete.
- Click the three dots on the Phantom card and select Delete.
- Confirm when prompted.
Once deleted, the Phantom cannot be recovered.
Pause or stop a Phantom without deleting it
If you don't want to delete the Phantom, but want it to stop running:
- Toggle off its scheduled launches.
- Stop any active runs from the Console page.
- Review chaining if it’s part of a larger multi-step setup.
