FAQ

Questions about Delete Blob.

What does the Delete Blob action do in Azure Blob Storage?

Removes a specific blob from a container. Irreversible. For workflows that need to clean up temporary blobs after processing (transcoded video files, scrap downloads, expired exports), this is the cleanup action.

What inputs does Delete Blob require?

Required: Container, Blob Name. Every input accepts a static value or a variable from any upstream node in your workflow.

Can I use dynamic inputs from earlier workflow nodes?

Yes. Any field on this action can pull values from upstream nodes, whether that's a form response, a trigger payload, an AI output, or a lookup result.

What happens if Azure Blob Storage returns an error?

The workflow pauses on the failed node, the error message is captured in the run log, and you can retry the run with one click. Auto-retry policies are configurable per workflow with exponential backoff up to 5 attempts.

Does Delete Blob support batch operations?

Yes. Run Delete Blob inside a Loop node to process arrays. Tiny Command handles Azure Blob Storage's rate limits automatically so you don't have to throttle manually.
