List Unused Objects in a Project

In Object Manager, you can retrieve a list of all the objects in a project that are not used by any other objects. For example, you can find which attributes or metrics are no longer used in any reports, so that you can delete those objects.

Finding unused objects is a part of Object Manager, and thus requires the Use Object Manager privilege to run. For an overview of Object Manager, see Copy Objects Between Projects: Object Manager.
