Delete Data

Deleting Data Programmatically

Before you begin, make sure you have created a global data type "Demo.User" with one field of the String type named "Name" and some data or update the code in the sample to refer to an actual data type and its fields .

Sample:

using System.Linq;
using Composite.Data;

namespace Demo
{
    public class Class3
    {
        public static void DeleteData(string userName)
        {
            using (DataConnection connection = new DataConnection())
            {
                Demo.User myUser =
                   (from d in connection.Get<Demo.User>()
                    where d.Name == userName
                    select d).First();
                connection.Delete<Demo.User>(myUser);
            }
        }
    }
}

In this sample, we use DataConnection to query for a Demo.User (Get) with a specific name (Name) and delete it from the CMS Data store (Delete).
