Deleting records with an action is non-reversible. In some circumstances it may therefore be better to select an Update action to simply mark the records as 'deleted' and then configure an Archive Task to remove records marked as deleted after a certain period of time. This will provide a window of opportunity for these 'deletions' to be reversed manually if they are made by mistake. If you don't want your users to see these deleted records, simply filter them from any views.

Condition

This is only available if you have selected Filter Type = Action Filter.

Create a filter to specify the records that an Update or Delete will apply to. Any expressions on this filter can reference the Form View fields, Context Parameters and any attributes from any record selected on the view or dashboard from which this action was initiated. Configure this filter in the same way that you would a pipe filter.

Copy Values By Name

This is only available if you have selected Stream Item Action = Insert or Update.

If this flag is ticked, all Stream Item Attributes which are not present on the Action Attributes list below will take their new values from the current form.

This will only apply to records which have a corresponding record on the form.
