Salesforce Delete

Description:

Salesforce Delete removes records from Salesforce modules using the Salesforce Web Service API. Use this step when your workflow needs to clean up or remove records in Salesforce — for example, deleting obsolete accounts, purging test data, or synchronizing deletions from an external system. It identifies records to delete using their Salesforce record IDs, which are typically provided by a previous step such as Salesforce Input.
