Delete Query

Example 1: Delete Data

In this example, we'll use the MySQL Execute function with the Type set to Delete to delete data and return the number of affected rows.

Add MySQL Execute Function

Start by adding the MySQL Execute function. Give it a Result Name and set the Type to Delete.

Write the SQL Query

In the function configuration, write the SQL query you want to use to delete the data.

Assume we have a users table and want to delete users where id > 10. The table schema looks like this:

CREATE TABLE `users` (
  `id` bigint unsigned NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
  `name` varchar(100) NOT NULL,
  `email` varchar(150) CHARACTER SET utf8mb4 COLLATE utf8mb4_0900_ai_ci NOT NULL,
  `age` int unsigned NOT NULL,
  `activated` tinyint(1) NOT NULL DEFAULT '1',
  `created` timestamp NOT NULL DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
  `updated` timestamp NOT NULL DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP ON UPDATE CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
  PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8mb4 COLLATE=utf8mb4_0900_ai_ci;

Now write the following delete query:

DELETE FROM users WHERE id > ?

Fill the Arguments

Provide the value for the id condition. Make sure the list literal is enabled:

[10]

Testing

When you run the query, it will delete any user with an id greater than 10.
