You can purge obsolete objects from a catalog source.
When you configure or run a catalog source, you can choose to deprecate objects that are
deleted from a source system. If you delete objects from the source system or make
changes to the filter, the objects imported into the catalog before the change move
to the Obsolete lifecycle in the catalog. You can purge obsolete objects from a
catalog source. This permanently deletes all objects with the Obsolete lifecycle
status, along with associated enrichments, from the catalog.

A confirmation message appears on the page and the purge job starts. You can monitor
the status of the job on the

remaining obsolete objects, run the purge job again.
