Icons Not Reverting to Defaults After Screenshot Microservice Disabled

This applies to: Visual Data Discovery

The Screenshot microservice can be enabled in Symphony using CentOS and Ubuntu. However, users might notice that even after disabling the Screenshot microservice, Symphony continues to use existing screenshot images and does not automatically revert back to the original default icons for visuals or dashboards used by Symphony after installation. To revert the icons used by Symphony for the visuals or dashboards before the Screenshot microservice was enabled, you must delete all the screenshots in the metadata directly.

To do this in MongoDB, run the following commands:

use zoom;
db.screenshots.remove({});

Use the mongo command to access the mongo shell through the Linux command line.

Make sure you disable the Screenshot microservice as well via the zoomdata.conf and zoomdata.properties files and restart the Symphony microservice for the changes to take effect.
