command cdb_batchDeleteKeys pDataA, pTarget

---

Summary

This function deletes specified keys for a batch of records across one or more tables.

Inputs

• pDataA (Array) - A multidimensional array, where each key is a tableID that maps to another array where the keys are recordIDs, and the elements are table keys with empty values. There must be at least one tableID key in the array.

  • [tableID 1] (Key) - Key is the first table's ID, maps to subarray of record IDs.
    • [cdbRecordID 1] (Key) - Key that is the record ID for the first record to delete keys from, or "*" to delete keys from all records in a table.
      • [keyName 1] (Key) - Key that is the keyName for the first record to have this key deleted
        • empty - The value of the corresponding key must be empty.
      • *[keyName N] (Key) - Key that is the keyName for the nth record to have this key deleted
        • empty - The value of the corresponding key must be empty.
    • *[cdbRecordID N] (Key) - key that is the record ID for the nth record to delete keys from. Repeat cdbRecordID 1's subarray structure
  • *[tableID N] (Key) - key that is the nth table's ID. Repeat tableID 1's subarray structure.

• pTarget (String) - The place to delete keys(s), either "cloud" or "local".

*optional parameter.

Additional Requirements

This API call requires internet access to make cloud calls.

Examples

local tDataA, tRecordIDs, tTarget, tTableID

# Table name: clients
# Keys: firstName, lastName, age, income
# cdbRecordIDs: 
# 87654321-abcd-1234-cdef-1234567890ab
# 12345678-abcd-1234-cdef-1234567890ab

put cdb_tableID("clients") into tTableID

put "87654321-abcd-1234-cdef-1234567890ab" into tRecordIDs
put "12345678-abcd-1234-cdef-1234567890ab" into tRecordIDs

repeat for each line xRecordID in tRecordIDs
    put empty into tDataA[tTableID][xRecordID]["age"]
    put empty into tDataA[tTableID][xRecordID]["income"]
end repeat

put "cloud" into tTarget
