Key/Value Management Screen

Use Manage Key-Values to inspect stored key-value group summaries and start cleanup tasks in a selected Site Environment. The screen manages the Environment-scoped key-value store used by supported v1 Runtime Key/Value Nodes and the v2 Runtime Key/Value Node.

Select the Environment

Open Manage Key-Values from the Site's settings navigation, then select the Environment at the top of the screen. Only Environments you can access are available. Changing the selection changes the groups, deletion scope, and tasks displayed on the screen.

Reading group information requires Site read permission. Generating summaries or deleting entries requires Site write permission, together with access to the selected Environment.

Inspect group summaries

The Key-Value groups pane shows each group's name, Key-Value Count, Earliest entry, and Latest entry. The UI calls these groups; the v2 Runtime Node uses the Parameter name Collection for the corresponding grouping.

Use the pane's actions as follows:

Action Effect
Refresh groups Reloads the available summaries. It does not generate new summaries from the stored records.
Generate Starts a background task to generate updated group summaries. Existing summary data remains available while it runs.
Download Exports the group summaries as CSV. It is a summary export, not a backup of individual keys and values.

Review Last updated on before relying on a summary. An empty list can mean that summaries have not yet been generated, even when records exist. If a limit notice appears, the visible list contains only the largest groups; use Download for all available group summaries.

Delete entries

The Delete Key-Values pane lets you select:

  • a specific entry inside a single group, identified by its Group and Key.
  • all entries inside a single group, with a date limit or no date limit.
  • all entries across all groups, up to a selected date.

Use today or pick a date when a date limit is required. Review the actual group, key, and date shown in the confirmation before proceeding. Date-bounded deletion includes records whose stored UTC date is on or before the selected date. The comparison uses the date component, so the entire selected UTC day is included.

Warning: Deletion cannot be undone. Removing keys used for checkpoints or duplicate detection can cause a Workflow to process previously handled records again. Confirm that the records are no longer needed before starting a deletion task.

  1. Select the intended Environment.
  2. Choose the entry and group scope in Delete Key-Values.
  3. Enter the required group, key, or date.
  4. Click Delete.
  5. Review the scope in Delete Key-Values? and confirm only when it matches the intended cleanup.
  6. Follow the task in the tasks table until it completes.

Follow background tasks

Generating summaries and deleting entries enqueue background tasks. The tasks table shows the operation, state, timestamps, and available messages. States include Queued, In progress, Succeeded, and Failed.

A message that the task is running in the background confirms that it was scheduled, not that the operation has completed. Large operations can take several hours. If a task fails, inspect its error and the remaining data before submitting another deletion. After cleanup, generate fresh summaries if you need counts that reflect the changed records.
