Unable to Delete Structured Data Fields in Assista...

I’m currently trying to remove structured data elements from one of my assistants, but I’m running into an issue — there doesn’t seem to be a way to delete the structured data schema once it’s been created in the UI. Even when I remove all the content from the fields, I’m still unable to publish the assistant due to required validation (e.g., “key must be at least 1 characters”). Essentially, I no longer want this assistant to return any structured data, but I’m stuck with empty fields that I can’t remove or disable. Can you advise on how I can either: 1. Fully delete the structured data schema from the assistant, or 2. Reset the schema state so it doesn’t block publishing?

Hey Mandika, Just a heads-up Praveen/Kyle is out for the weekend and will be back on Monday. Once he’s back, he’ll dive into this and help you figure out the best approach for your issue.
Hi Mandika, you can update or remove your structured data fields from any system using the API for now. I'll check with the team. What's the issue with respect to fields not getting removed? Meanwhile, please use the API for removing the required structured data fields.

Okay thank you - it would be helpful if can do it through the UI though. The problem is when I duplicate an existing assistant and then make some customization, I have no way of changing/removing fields from the structured data. So now I'm just recreating assistants from scratch so I don't have to deal with the problem. Kind of annoying though
If there's any way you can update the UI to support this, would be awesome

Hey Mandika Swartz, I sincerely apologize for the delay in our responses this week. We experimented with some process adjustments that didn’t work as intended, and unfortunately, this caused some disruptions. That’s entirely my responsibility. Just a quick note—our team is unavailable on weekends. However, if something urgent or critical comes up, feel free to reach out to me directly, and I’ll assist you. The support issues will be resolved in the coming weeks, and starting Monday, you can expect more consistent and improved support. Thank you so much for your patience and for continuing to stick with us!
