Use the Delete Activity to delete a document from the Domino
database. Each deleted document must be uniquely identifiable by its
UniversalID or NotesID.
Using the delete activity
- Right-click Orchestration in the Project
pane and click New Orchestration to create
or open an orchestration. The orchestration pane is displayed.
- Select the Activities tab and expand the Domino folder.
- Drag and drop Delete Activity from the
Domino folder onto the orchestration. A graphical representation of
the orchestration along with the Checklist is displayed.
- The Checklist pane lists the tasks(Summary, Pick Endpoint,
Configure, Map inputs, Map outputs) that you must complete
to configure the outbound activity.
- Click Pick Endpoint, and then select a
Domino endpoint.
For instructions on creating or editing a Domino
endpoint, see Creating or editing an endpoint for a Domino activity.

Specifying the map inputs for the delete activity
- Click Map Input from the Checklist.
The
input parameters for the specific Domino activity are displayed under
the To Activity pane. Some of the common input parameters are defined
in the following table.
Parameter Name |
Description |
UniversalID |
The UniversalID parameter is a read-write property that uniquely
identifies a document across all replicas of a database. In character
format, the unique ID parameter is a 32-character combination of hexadecimal
digits (0-9, A-F). The UniversalID is also known as the unique ID
or UNID. The datatype is string. |
NotesID |
The Notes ID of a document is a read only property and has
a hexadecimal value of up to 8 characters, which uniquely identifies
a document within a particular database. The NotesID represents the
location of a document within a specific database file. So the documents
that are replicas of one another generally have different Notes IDs.
A Notes ID does not change, unless the document is deleted. |
Note: You must map the input parameters of the
activity.
Optional parameters
There is also an optional parameter for delete activity.
- forceDelete: This property specifies if the document is
to be deleted during a conflict of delete operation. It is of type
boolean.
Specifying the map outputs for the delete activity
- Click Map output from the Checklist.
The
output parameters for the Domino activity are displayed under the
From Activity pane.
Note: You can map the output parameters
of the activity based on requirement.
