Delete AccountTeamMember

Question

We have .Net service which does CURD on account team members for a given Account. Whenever there is a change in the role of the members/person moved from one account to another, the service will perform a data sync to delete the Account team members. Now the question is how can .Net service can perform a delete on AccountTeamMember object. As per my knowledge "IsDeleted" flag is not updatable.

I am wondering how delete can be performed on this object. Could you please shed some light on this?

Answer 1

To delete a record via REST, you use the DELETE verb:

DELETE /services/data/v45.0/sobjects/AccountTeamMember/{Id} HTTP/1.1
Host: mydomain.my.salesforce.com
Authorization: Bearer {sessionId}

On a successful result, you'll get a 204:

HTTP/1.1 204 No Content

For more information, you'll want to read about it in the SObject Rows documentation.

Answer 2

With spring 18 feature you could also delete multiple records(upto 200) in one go.

Use a DELETE request to delete to up 200 records, specified by ID, returning a list of DeleteResult objects. The objects in a DELETE request can belong to more than one object type. You can choose to roll back the entire request if there are errors.
