The delete operation also deletes all submissions from LiLive Forms; submission repository and any saved in process form instances and pending workflow tasks.
Before deleting you may wish to download a copy of the form, flow or application to disk by clicking the download icon.
If your goal is to update your form, flow or application to a new version that you had previously downloaded to disk or to revert to an older version previously downloaded to disk, do not first delete the it since, as stated, this removes all associated saved/submitted/pending form and flow instances. Instead leave the original as it is and upload the version from disk by clicking the upload icon. A dialog will display that lets you browse to the form, flow or application on disk and giving give you the option of replacing the current with this new version.
