Bulk delete opportunity close activities

[nicole-dynamics]

I want to delete Opportunity Close Activities that are older than 6 years. I've created the flow for this and it says it suceeeds, but I dont see that the activities are being deleted. 

What am I doing wrong? The condition is set to CreatedOn is greater than or equal to 

subtractFromTime(utcNow(),6,'Year')

Hey @nicole-dynamics 

In the condition, use the function ticks to compare the time. 

e.g., In the condition on the left input, click on expressions from the dynamic selector, type "ticks()" and in the bracket select the created on field from the dynamic content selector. Similarly wrap the subtract time function in  the ticks() function. 

Hope this Helps!

So like this

condition 

ticks('createdon') is greater than or equal to 

ticks(subtractFromTime(utcNow(),6,'Year'))

Note: when I put the expression in the first left box, nothing comes up for the dynamic content so I just entered Createdon.

Hi @nicole-dynamics 

The created on will not work that way. Waht you can do is in the left input just select created on from the dynamic selector. Now tap into the left input box and select all (Ctrl A) and copy using ctrl c, now remove this and go to the expressions and type ticks() and paste the content within the bracket. from the content remove the '@' and any curly braces.

And then what goes into the right input box of the condition?

[yashag2255]

Hey @nicole-dynamics  it will be ticks(subtract....).

The subtract function you already have wrapped inside of the ticks function.

Thank you for all of your assistance. I see that the flow succeeds but I dont actually see that it is deleting records based on the query I am doing in Dynamics CRM to validate.

@nicole-dynamics 

Can you share a screenshot of the condition action from your flow?

[nicole-dynamics]

Left input box :

ticks(items('Apply_to_each_2')?['createdon'])

Right input box:

ticks(subtractFromTime(utcNow(),6,'Year'))

Hi @nicole-dynamics  

I see a balnk condition branch in the flow. Can you please delete that and try again?

[nicole-dynamics]

That is included by default and can not be removed. I have other flows where it is blank and it does not impact the flow.

Hi @nicole-dynamics ,

Yes I can see there are 512 records fetched for delete.

Try Settings of 'Apply to each' and set it execute in sequential. Lets see whether that works or not.

Thanks
