Possible to purge non-used attributes from a project area?

If I understand correct, once you have added a custom attribute in a process template that attribute (id and type) is persisted in the project area, and there is no way from the UI to remove it - i.e. even if removing it from the process template xml and it's not used by any WI it is still present in the db.

Correct?

If so -- is there some other way to either 1) list and 2) remove these attributes through APIs etc?

Hi Nils,

to my knowledge, there is no way to get rid of the data today. You can only remove the attributes from the Editor Presentations. It will still remain visible in queries etc.
