Overview

You can use this Snap to delete objects in Salesforceto delete records using Salesforce Bulk API 2.0. The Snap submits the delete requests in batches.

Prerequisites

None.

Support for Ultra Pipelines

Works in Ultra Pipelines.

Note

In Ultra Pipelines, set the Batch Size as 1 for the Snap to process one document/record at a time.

...

This Snap performs batch processing, that is, ; a batch of input documents are is processed for each HTTP request sent to Salesforce. Values of all the expression-enabled fields must remain constant during the Snap execution or validation. Hence, all expression fields can support Pipeline parameters only when they are expression-enabled. The input data parameters are not supported for expression fields, ; for example, $serviceVersion.

Snap Views

The error view contains error, reason, resolution and stack trace. For more information, see Handling Errors with an Error Pipeline

Error handling is a generic way to handle errors without losing data or failing the Snap execution. You can handle the errors that the Snap might encounter when running the Pipeline by choosing one of the following options from the When errors occur list under the Views tab:

  • Stop Pipeline Execution: Stops the current Pipeline execution when the Snap encounters an error.

  • Discard Error Data and Continue: Ignores the error, discards that record, and continues with the remaining records.

  • Route Error Data to Error View: Routes the error data to an error view without stopping the Snap execution.
