AirData Delete Record Data Flow Template
delete.jpg
Overview
This Data Flow template is made up of four Data Operations that allow app builders to delete records in AirData. This is achieved by passing data from an App Object to this Data Flow, setting up the values to be retrieved and then transforming them so that they can be parsed and then deleted if meeting the specified criteria.
In Connection Builder, Data Flow templates can be found with pre-populated sample data. However,app builders should perform the necessary adjustments for their use case, such as selecting a different App Object or adding other Data Ops.
AirData Delete Record Operations
This Data Flow contains six parts:
Inputs
The Start pane keeps track of the inputs required by the Data Flow.
No sample inputs.
App Object: Identity - created in Data Builder, to perform the Airdata request on. Even if this App Object comes by default, app builders should select the one that is appropriate.
Payload: QUERY - to request data from the object.
Paginate: unchecked - for the system to retrieve the first 100 results.
Filter: sample email value - to request this value from the selected App Object.
Run Results: airdata_query output Variable of type Any that is automatically created to hold the results of this Operation.
Transform Expression: Airscript expression with a condition
Sample expression: if length of the value is higher than 0, retrieve airdata_query.results
Output Format: Variable
Type: Text
Run Results: random_result output Variable of type Text that is automatically created to hold the results of this Operation.
AirData Request Data Operation
App Object: Identity
Payload: DELETE: to delete data from the object.
Keys to delete: random_results - output from previous Transform Data Op.
Run Results: delete_result Variable of type Any that is automatically created to hold the results of this Operation.
Transform Data Operation
Transform Expression: Airscript expression to check for errors.
Output Format: Variable
Type: Boolean
Run Results: success Variable of type Boolean that is automatically created to hold the results of this Operation.
Output
The End step is where Variables from the Data Flow can be used as an output.
Sample Return Value: Success of type Boolean
Use Cases
Allow app builders to delete records in AirData.
