# How to delete deprecated metadata Source: https://support.storeconnect.com/articles/how-to-delete-deprecated-metadata · Last modified 21 August 2026 In our ongoing efforts to enhance existing features, we occasionally need to remove the use of an object or field from our package. When this occurs, we append a label to the field or object to show as `[Deprecated]` indicating that they are no longer in use. Periodically, we remove deprecated metadata from our package. This ensures that any fresh installations of StoreConnect do not include these deprecated objects and fields. However, if you already have the metadata present in your org, it will not be automatically deleted, even when upgrading to the latest version. Once you have been upgraded to a StoreConnect package version that no longer has the deleted metadata, you can manually remove it from your org. ## Download the required zip file for v21 ### [For package versions 21 and up](https://res.cloudinary.com/hzkr6fi81/raw/upload/v1781230462/media/delete-metadata-v21.zip) API Version: 63 If you are on an earlier version than v21, see the alternative zip file below. ## Remove deleted metadata from your org 1.
