Overview

This node is designed to delete a contact from a specified system or service. It is useful in scenarios where you need to remove outdated, incorrect, or unwanted contact records programmatically as part of an automation workflow. For example, you might use this node to clean up your contact list by deleting contacts who have unsubscribed or are no longer relevant.

Properties

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the result of the delete operation. Typically, this will include confirmation that the contact was successfully deleted or details about any error encountered. There is no indication that the node outputs binary data.

Dependencies

• Requires an API key or authentication token to connect to the external contact management service.
• The node depends on internal methods and routing logic defined in separate modules (methods and actions/router) to perform the deletion.
• Proper configuration of credentials and permissions in n8n is necessary for successful execution.

Troubleshooting

• Missing or invalid Contact ID: If the Contact ID is not provided or incorrect, the node will likely fail to find the contact to delete. Ensure the Contact ID is accurate and exists in the system.
• Authentication errors: Failure to authenticate with the external service will prevent deletion. Verify that the API key or authentication token is correctly configured and has sufficient permissions.
• Network or API errors: Temporary network issues or API rate limits may cause failures. Retry after some time or check API usage limits.
• Error messages typically indicate whether the contact was not found, authentication failed, or other API-related issues. Review the error details to resolve accordingly.

Links and References

• Refer to the external service's API documentation for contact deletion endpoints and required parameters.
