Delete Scriptrunner custom fragment causing errors

In this article i will explain how you can remove a ScriptRunner fragment if you added it and its causing errors. 

For my case , I added a fragment to show data on header like below

Later on , I updated the html and forgot to close the tag and the result were when ever i was loading any page , was getting this error and no one able to access Jira

Here are the steps which you can follow to remove any fragment through rest if its causing error.

Do a Get Call 

http://localhost:9090/rest/scriptrunner/latest/fragments 

You will see results like below

Get required id of the fragment and then do a DELETE request call by using URI as below

Request Type: DELETE
URI: http://localhost:9090/rest/scriptrunner/latest/fragments/35317b57-d843-41b7-a80f-4d53514fd990

Please change the host url and id as per your instance.
That's it, fragment will be deleted and you can refresh Jira and it will work perfectly.
