Options for this action
Parent site
The Parent site is the site that will contain the site to be deleted.
- Select a parent site enables a site picker (Select a team site) to navigate through the portal structure and select the location to be deleted.
- Enter a URL manually or use Insert Reference to dynamically build the URL at run time.
URL name
The URL name is the web address relative to the specified parent site (do not include the full site URL). For example: http://myportal/sites/<URL name>
Override credentials
The site will be created using the current security context of the workflow by default. This can be the rights of the initiator or the rights of the workflow owner. If an override username and password is provided, the workflow action will use the permissions of the provided account to delete the site instead.
