Table Delete Rows

Delete rows from a target table.

Rather than delete a set of rows based on a static condition, this component deletes rows based on matching rows to the key values identified in an input flow.

Multiple Key Column Mappings can be entered. They form an AND condition, so all keys must match for the row to be deleted. This is analogous to a JOIN condition.

Deleting rows requires a vacuum afterwards to recover space. This component does not arrange that vacuum for you. If you are removing a large portion of the table, it may be better to rewrite the rows you want to keep to a new table and then drop the existing table and rename the new one. For more information on vacuuming tables see here.
