Notes

  • APITemplate.io really does use GET for this delete; the node sends what the API documents.

See Delete Generated File run in a workflow.

In a technical demo we add the APITemplate.io connection, drop the node on the canvas and let Workflow Health pre-flight it before the first real run.
