D365 Delete Record

Deletes a single record from a Microsoft Dynamics 365 / Dataverse entity by ID or name.

Purpose

Use this task when a workflow needs to permanently remove a record from Dynamics 365, such as cleaning up temporary records, removing duplicates, or archiving data as part of a broader process. The task accepts either a GUID or a record name — if a GUID is supplied it is used directly; otherwise the task attempts a name-based lookup before deleting.
