Delete records matching a filter
This operation doesn’t accept empty filters.
This operation is resource-intensive.
You should only use it if you can’t get the object IDs of the records you want to delete.
It’s more efficient to get a list of object IDs with the browse
operation,
and then delete the records using the batch
operation.
This operation is subject to indexing rate limits.
