I’m looking to nuke my test db? Is there no big red button that I can push to nuke it?
Nope, there is not, and the challenges associated with nuking large amounts of data are well-documented, unfortunately.
Here is a related idea on the ideaboard, if you want to upvote it.
Interesting… but the data API only allows to delete 1 thing at a time, there’s no bulk.
Or are there some undocumented APIs?
I have one of these that schedules API workflow on a list in batches of 100 for each data type. It’s unfortunate that you need to make a different backend workflow for each data type
Delete button → schedule delete routers for each data type → delete router recursively schedules API workflow on a list in batches of 100
Oh! That explains sooo much!
Thanks.
It only starts deleting stuff after all the deletion workflows have been scheduled (each Schedule API workflow (to delete) on a list is set to run in 10 minutes (so after everything’s been scheduled) rather than immediately.
Create a loop outside of bubble that will retrieve a list and delete one by one using data API.
You will need to add special parameter to disable record recounting with each call.
Managed to delete 10 million records in day or two. Super slow delete button.
