The "Delete Many Records" action is a powerful feature that allows your app to delete multiple records from a specified table in one go.
This action is useful when you need to clear out data based on specific criteria, such as removing outdated entries, cleaning up test data, or managing records in bulk.
When you enable the action to the Record View, there is a menu of action buttons added to the bottom bar of the record view.
You will configure the table whose records will be deleted and set the condition to filter which records will be removed as the result of the action.
The action first evaluates the records in the table against the conditions you’ve set. Only those records that match the specified conditions or condition groups are deleted.
From the Design tab, in the Tables section of the left sidebar, click on the Record view of any table.
Go to the Action section on the right sidebar, and click the + button.
Enter the name and icon for the action button, then click Configure...
Click + Then... and choose Delete many records.
In Table, choose the table from which you want to delete records as the result of the action. Ensure you select the correct table, as the deletion process cannot be undone.
In Delete all records that match, you define the conditions to filter the records that will be deleted.
To add a new condition, choose + Add condition or + Add condition group
To add a condition
Click + Add condition
