# Enable relationship deletion
By default, Freelucy cannot delete relationships from `cmdb_rel_ci`. ServiceNow scoped applications need explicit authorization to delete records on that table. You grant it once, in the global scope, using either of two methods.
{% hint style="danger" %}
**Global scope, System Administrator.** A System Administrator must perform these steps in the **Global** application scope.
{% endhint %}
Pick one of the two methods below. They achieve the same result.
***
## Method A — Authorize via the `cmdb_rel_ci` table
Use this method if you prefer to make the change directly on the table definition.
1. From the ServiceNow homepage, click **All** and filter for **System Definition**, then open **Tables**.
2. Search for `cmdb_rel_ci` under **Name**.
3. Open **CI Relationship**.
4. Click the **Application Access** tab.
5. Tick the **Can delete** checkbox and save.
Users with the Editor role can now delete relationships in Freelucy.
***
## Method B — Authorize via an Update Set
Use this method if you prefer to deploy the change as a packaged Update Set, for example through your normal change pipeline.
1. Download the [Allow Freelucy Deleting Relationships Update Set](https://www.ins-pi.com/hubfs/ins-pi%20Website%20Theme/Knowledgebase/FREELUCY/UPDATE%20SET%20Allow%20LUCY%20Deleting%20Relationships.xml.zip) and unzip it. You should see a file named `UPDATE SET Allow LUCY Deleting Relationships.xml`.
2. From the ServiceNow homepage, click **All** and filter for **Retrieved Update Sets**.
3. Open **Retrieved Update Sets**.
4. Click **Import Update Set from XML**.
5. Click **Browse**, pick the XML file, and click **Upload**.
6. Open **Allow Freelucy Deleting Relationships**.
7. Click **Preview Update Set**.
8. When the preview succeeds, close the dialog.
9. Click **Commit Update Set**.
10. When the commit succeeds, close the dialog.
Users with the Editor role can now delete relationships in Freelucy.
