Example
A minimal configuration for this block:
{
"type": "zendesk/delete-custom-object-record",
"config": {
"customObjectKey": "<PreviousStep.field>",
"recordId": "<PreviousStep.field>"
}
}Limits and failure modes
- Requires a connected Zendesk integration. Calls fail if that integration is disconnected or its authorization has expired.
- Required fields (
customObjectKey,recordId) must be set, or the block fails validation before it runs. - On failure the
erroroutput is populated; downstream blocks that reference other outputs may not receive values.
