oneDriveDeleteFile Step

Description:

This step deletes a file from the OneDrive folder. 

 

Inputs

  • selOAuthProvider - Select OAuth provider
  • destinationFilePath - Path to delete file
  • resultJson - Store result in Variable or Global 
 

 

Returns

  • True – step executed successfully
  • False – step failed to execute 
 

 

Usage:

 

 

To use this step, you must configure OneDrive in the FlowWright application.

 

Example:

Let’s build and execute the “oneDriveDeleteFileDef” example.          

  • Create a new process definition called “oneDriveDeleteFileDef” and open it in Designer mode.
  • Drag a “oneDriveDeleteFile” step to the canvas. 
  • Connect the dots between the Start and “oneDriveDeleteFile” steps, as shown above. 
  • Define a variable or a global to store the result. 
  • Click the “OneDriveDeleteFile” step to configure its “Required” properties. Provide a name for the step. Select the OAuth Windows Live provider. Provide the file path info to delete on the application server. Provide a variable or a global reference to store the result. Click the Save button. Note: Click the "AI Predict" button for the Copilot to add new process steps that match your process description. 

 

  • The “Logging” setting configuration is necessary for documentation and also measures the workflow progress and the percent complete. This is achieved by configuring the step state and percent fields individually, as shown in the images below. Configure the “Logging” using the following properties.

 

  • Save the process definition, create a new instance, and then execute it. Render the process instance. Click the process step to view the properties. The step should delete the file from the OneDrive folder.

 

Definition Sample:

You may download the sample definition(s) from the link here and later import them (drag-and-drop) to your FlowWright Process Definition (XML file) or Form Definition (HTML file) page. 

Note: Please verify and complete the process steps for any missing configurations, such as file path references and database connections, after import. Then, save the definition to confirm the changes.
