Remove Bad Components

Learn how to remove bad components in Akto dashboard.

Akto gives users options to ignore static file components or components having default payloads. This documentation helps you maintain a clean and efficient component inventory in your Akto setup.

We have two methods for removing bad components from your inventory:

1. Select file type

2. Add default payloads

Ways to remove bad components in Akto

Selecting static component file types

1. Navigate to Settings. Then open About tab in the left nav.

2. Click on the Select redundant url types button in More settings section on the page.

3. Select the File types which you want to ignore and Akto will ignore those components from the future. You can also remove some default types we ignore.

Adding default payloads

1. Navigate to Settings. Then open Default payloads tab in the left nav.

2. Click on Add your own and then enter the domain name of the URLs you want to ignore.

3. After adding domain name, enter the regex for response payload.
