Deleting data

Deleting data in Ycode allows you to manage and maintain your project’s information effectively by removing records you no longer need. This action helps keep your database clean and relevant.

How to Delete Data

Ycode provides an action called Delete database record, which lets you delete collection records directly through your website without needing access to the Ycode backend. This ensures users can safely remove their information while maintaining control over your data.

To delete records:

• Use workflows linked to buttons or forms that trigger the Delete database record action.

• Set the conditions or filters to specify which records should be deleted.

• Confirm deletion prompts to prevent accidental data loss.

Be sure to double-check the records selected for deletion to avoid removing important data unintentionally.

Best Practices for Data Deletion

• Regularly audit your data and delete obsolete or incorrect records promptly.

• Use deletion workflows combined with forms for secure user-initiated data removal.

• Backup essential data by exporting before deleting via Managing Data Exports.

• Understand your privacy responsibilities by reviewing Understanding Privacy Settings.
