You cannot only delete an Integration Namespace when:
  1. In a different namespace, a Property Definition uses an entity of the current namespace as a range.
  2. In a different namespace, Property Association uses entity of the current namespace as a range restriction.
  3. An Entity of the current namespace is used as a parent in a different namespace
  4. An Error of the current namespace is used in a service or command in a different namespace.
  5. In a different namespace, a Service, Command uses as input/output/payload an entity of the current namespace
  6. An Entity from an integration namespace is used as a known entity (in an external entity) in the Domain Layer.

You will need to confirm the action before the selected command is permanately deleted..

Attention: You can only delete a namespace if artifacts that belong to the namespace are not in use.
