Remove artifacts from Nexus repository
Yup, in the past I've just deleted artifacts using the web GUI, no problems
On my installation (Nexus 3.23, with a Python repository), the "delete component" isn't available in the WebGUI from the browse interface (even logged in as local admin).
However, if you use the "Advanced search" feature and select the desired component/package, then the delete function is available, so it's the only way I found to delete a package.
login as administrator, delete the artifacts you want to remove, and rebuild index for this repo.
