Hi Herman, 1. If you don¹t need to track deleted entities, you can disable soft-deletes with config - atlas.DeleteHandler.impl=org.apache.atlas.repository.graph.HardDeleteHandle r. This will not store any deleted entities in db and hence deleted entities don¹t show up on API/UI 2. If you want soft delete, but want to filter deleted entities, you can use state filter in DSL query - hive_table where name = Œxx¹ and __state = ŒACTIVE¹ 3. On trunk, orderby query should be - hive_table orderby name. On 0.7, orderby field should be qualified, so, hive_table orderby ŒAsset.name¹. We need to update the documentation at apache website. https://github.com/apache/incubator-atlas/blob/master/docs/src/site/twiki/S earch.twiki contains the latest docs 4. We have a draft of the docs, need to update
