Is there a way to remove translated field labels in languages that will never be used?

I've noticed lately that there are a lot of field labels in languages that will never be used in our instance and wondering if there is a way to easily delete all of these field label translations and ensure that they are not recreated.

 

The only languages that we have any need for in our instance is EN and ES, but also now have records for AR, CS, DE, FI, FQ, FR, HE, HU, IT, JA, KO, NB, NL, PB, PL, PT, RU, SV, TH, TR, ZH, and ZT.

 

While it appears that all of these translated labels were part of a plugin update for Expanded Model and Asset Classes, I don't want to run into a situation where our instance has millions of field labels in languages that will never be used.

Hello @Marcel H_ 

How it is confirmed that those records are part of Expanded Model and Asset Class tables.

How many language plugins are available in the system?

Kind Regards,

Ravi.

Here are screenshots from the sys_documentation table. I just filtered by the first table that had one of the additional languages:

Can you also go to list of all plugins, and search for those languages to see if those Language plugins are available?

Since these values came as part of expanded model and asset class plugin update (looks like ITAM stuff to me), please create a case with ServiceNow Support to understand further on the issue.

Please mark the answer as helpful and correct if helped.

Kind Regards,

Ravi.
