It's not clear to me what it is you wish to delete. There is no uploaded file on Splunk so there's nothing to delete. The original file on your workstation is not touched, other than to read it. Once the data is ingested, you can safely delete the original data. If you want Splunk to automatically delete a monitored file after it has been indexed, use a batch input. See https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/9.0.4/Admin/Inputsconf#:~:text=setting%20also%20exists.-,BATCH,-(%22Upload%20a%20file for details.
