Are you trying to delete a model you defined via slc loopback:model or delete an instance of model in your database? – Babbette

delete complete model defined via slc loopback:model – Marconigraph

Answer 1

Delete /common/models/your-model.js and /common/models/your-model.json, then delete the lines referencing your model in /server/model-config.json.

Also delete references of relation in other models if relation created. – Mullein

hi @Babbette -- I've deleted the reference inside of model-config.json, and the model .js and .json files inside server/models (I do not have a /common/models/).. but the deleted model is still appearing in the API explorer. Is there something else I need to do? – Drawee

No, that should be it. Maybe delete your browser cache? – Babbette

with apiconnect, we now have some YAML (why not .json, idk). So I assume we need to edit that YAML too, now? – Jonjona

I hope the loopback team adds this action to their CLI – Slim
