Use this activity to remove one or more files, or empty directories from the remote server.
Settings
The Settings tab has the following field:
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| SFTP Connection |
Name of the SFTP connection. |
Input
The Input tab has the following field:
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Remote File Name |
The path and name of the file to delete on the remote server. Wildcards (question mark (?) for any one character or asterisk (*) for one or more characters) are permitted in this field.

Loop
The Loop tab is useful when an activity needs to use the loop feature to do batch processing or fetch multiple records by running the activity multiple times. With each iteration of the activity, the output is available for mapping to the activity input.
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Type |
You can select type of loop. Note: The default type is None, which means the activity does not iterate.
|
| Iterate | You can enter a number that represents the number of times you would like the activity to iterate without considering any condition for iterating. |
| Repeat while true | You can select this type if you want to set up a condition for the iteration. |
