1. Overview

Learn how to create a ‘Delete’ Feed in BulkFlow to remove unwanted products, customers, or orders from your store. This feed type is best used for discontinuing products or cleaning up test data.

2. Requirements

Before creating a ‘Delete’ feed, make sure you have:

• A BulkFlow account with appropriate access rights.
• A list of identifiers (SKUs, Customer IDs, or Order IDs) that need to be deleted.
• Connected your Shopify store to BulkFlow.

3. How to Create a ‘Delete’ Feed

Step 1: Create a New Feed

• From your BulkFlow Dashboard, click Create New Feed → select Delete.

• Choose the entity type you want to remove (e.g., Products, Customers, Orders).

Step 2: Upload Your File

• Upload a simple file with just the identifiers (e.g., SKUs for products) that need to be removed.
• Only the identifier column is required. Ensure the file is formatted correctly.
• You will receive this message when your file is accepted ready to process.

Step 3: Field Mapping

• Map the identifier field (e.g., SKU) to ensure the correct items are matched and deleted.
• Confirm your deletion settings.

Step 4: Processing

• The system verifies each item exists in the store. You can cancel or pause this process by clicking the 'Cancel' or 'Pause' buttons.

• Matching items will be removed from your store.

Step 5: Completion

• A summary of the deleted items will be displayed once the process is complete.
• Any errors or unmatched identifiers will be shown for review.

4. Tips

• Matching items are permanently removed.
• Deletions cannot be undone.
• Double-check your SKU list before uploading to avoid accidental deletions.

5. FAQs

1. Can I delete orders or customers?

Yes. You can delete orders and customers by providing their IDs in the file.

2. Can I undo a deletion?

No. Deletions are permanent and cannot be undone.

3. What happens if the SKU is not found?

If an SKU doesn’t match any product in your store, it will be shown as an error.
