Hi Team I am working on JIRA AIRFLOW-5523 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AIRFLOW-5523>.
As per the JIRA, the requirement is to automate the deletion for the dags whose dag file is not present. In the current state, when a user tries to delete a dag from UI whose file is already present, it fails with the following message: [image: Screenshot 2019-12-05 at 2.49.03 PM.png] Once this dag file is removed, it becomes a "zombie" dag, as shown below. [image: image.png] In this state, this dag can be deleted from the UI and asks for the confirmation with warning as: [image: Screenshot 2019-12-05 at 2.55.25 PM.png] One way to remove these zombie dags is to filter these entries from populating to the UI, ie, entries for which the dag file is not present. Also, after making this change, the cross button([image: Screenshot 2019-12-05 at 2.58.30 PM.png]) will also won't make any sense, which can also be removed. Now if the user deletes the dag file, he won't see those dag entries anymore in the UI. Kindly provide your feedback or concerns. Thanks ^ Regards Vishesh Jain
