Bulent703 Delete id limit reached error
Hi,
I'm trying to run a Java application that bulk deletes records from Salesforce. However, I get the following error:
[UnexpectedErrorFault [ApiFault exceptionCode='EXCEEDED_ID_LIMIT' exceptionMessage='delete id limit reached: 200']]
Here is my code (simplified):
public static DeleteResult[] deleteFiles(PartnerConnection conn, String[] idsToDelete) throws Exception
{
try
{
return conn.delete(idsToDelete);
}
catch(ConnectionException e)
{
logger.debug("Exception occured: " + e.getLocalizedMessage(), e);
throw new Exception("Exception occured: " + e.getLocalizedMessage(), e);
}
}
where I pass 9000 IDs into the array. Which limit am I hitting and how can I change this limit?
Thanks!
There is limit on the number of Id;s which can be passed to delete() call.
In version 7.0 and later, you can pass a maximum of 200 object IDs to the delete() call. In version 6.0 and earlier, the limit is 2,000.
you can find further details at Link.
Solution for this could be limiting the the delete call for 200 Ids by breaking those 9000 Ids in the batches of 200.
