Orphaned Associations

Question

In my utility network there are what I can only describe as orphaned associations. ArcGIS Pro (2.9 and 3.0) shows them in the dirty areas table but doesn't show them in the Modify Associations pane.  I'd like to just delete them but I'm not seeing how to do that.

When I query the rest endpoint there are results returned.  When I try to delete them from the rest endpoint I get an error.

Any ideas on how to clear these?

Hi Jimmy,

At the current time, unfortunately, there is no proper prescribed method for cleaning out these orphaned associations. Because there is additional metadata associated with the features in this state, it could cause confusion if you located the rows directly in the associations table and deleted them (using the backend DBMS).

We are currently working on enhancements to our Modify Associations pane, so that these associations can be identified, presented, and removed from the data appropriately.
