Introduction
The plugin is used to automatically delete data from a process. For this purpose, a configuration file can be used to define very granularly which data exactly should be deleted.
Installation
To install the plugin, the following file must be installed:
To configure how the plugin should behave, various values can be adjusted in the configuration file. The configuration file is usually located here:
Overview and functionality
To use the plugin, it must be activated for one or more desired tasks in the workflow. This is done as shown in the following screenshot by selecting the plugin intranda_step_deleteContent
from the list of installed plugins.
Since this plugin is usually to be executed automatically, the step in the workflow should be configured as automatic.
Once the plugin is fully installed and set up, it is usually executed automatically within the workflow, so there is no manual interaction with the user. Instead, the workflow calls the plugin in the background and starts the deletion of the configured data. In doing so, the configured folders and data are deleted, if they exist. Data that does not exist will be skipped. If it has been configured that the process is to be deactivated, all workflow steps are run through and checked whether they have already been closed regularly within the workflow. If this is not the case, the steps are deactivated.
When the deletion is complete, a message is added to the process log to inform you that this plugin has been called and the data was deleted.
Configuration
The configuration of the plugin is structured as follows:
