Hi Sailer,

 

The following where clause should help you get the feeds starting with abc:

 

AccountFeed[] feed = [SELECT Id FROM AccountFeed where Body like 'abc%' ]; Delete feed

 

Hope this helps!

Can you try this:

AccountFeed[] feed = [SELECT Id FROM AccountFeed where Body like 'Test22%' ];
AccountFeed[] feedtoDelete = new AccountFeed[]{};

for(AccountFeed f : feed)
{
String feedbody = f.Body.toString();
if(feedbody.startsWith('abc'))
feedtoDelete.add(f);
}

if(feedtoDelete.size() > 0)
delete feedtoDelete;

Try this::

global class deleteAccountFeeds implements Database.Batchable<sObject>
{
global final String query;

global deleteAccountFeeds(String query)
{
query = 'SELECT Id, Body FROM AccountFeed';
}

global Database.QueryLocator start(Database.BatchableContext BC)
{
return Database.getQueryLocator(query);
}

global void execute(Database.BatchableContext BC, List<sObject> scope)
{
List<AccountFeed> feedToDelete = new List<AccountFeed>();
for(sObject s : scope)
{
AccountFeed p =(AccountFeed)s;
if(p.Body.startsWith('abc'))
{
feedToDelete.add(p);
}
}
delete feedToDelete;
}

global void finish(Database.BatchableContext BC)
{
}
}
