Overview

This node integrates with the Apify API to delete an actor resource. It allows users to specify the actor to delete by providing the Actor ID, which can be selected from a list, entered as a URL, or directly as an ID string. This node is useful for automating the management of Apify actors, such as removing outdated or unused actors programmatically.

Use Case Examples

1. Deleting an actor by selecting it from a list of available actors.
2. Deleting an actor by providing the actor's URL from the Apify console.
3. Deleting an actor by directly specifying the actor's ID string.
