This page describes how to update and delete model monitors.
Update a model monitor
Update a model monitor to modify the default configuration for monitoring jobs.
You can't change the model version that a model monitor is associated with.
Instead, create a new model monitor.
Console
In the Google Cloud console, go to the Monitoring page.
Remove model monitors to prevent authorized users from inadvertently running
monitoring jobs on unused model monitors. When you delete a model monitor, any
associated monitoring data is deleted except for metrics and statistics exported
by Monitoring, which remain in Cloud Monitoring and in your
Cloud Storage.
Console
In the Google Cloud console, go to the Monitoring page.
