Remove User¶
Description¶
This operation deletes a specific user from the Users data table.
Method¶
The signature presented below expects the "objectId" to delete a user record from the data table. The "objectId" property is a unique identifier assigned by Backendless to the user account. You can also pass the BackendlessUser object containing the objectId to delete a record.
Blocking API:
BackendlessUser Backendless.Data.Of<BackendlessUser>().Remove(BackendlessUser user);
Non-blocking API:
Task<BackendlessUser> Backendless.Data.Of<BackendlessUser>().RemoveAsync(BackendlessUser user);
Non-blocking API with Callback:
void Backendless.Data.Of<BackendlessUser>().Remove(BackendlessUser user, AsyncCallback<Int64> callback);
where:
| Argument | Description |
|---|---|
objectId |
Unique identifier of a user record that must be deleted from the Users data table. String value or number. Refer to the Data Import topic to learn more about objectId value as the number. |
callback |
A callback object which will receive a callback when the method successfully returns a result or an error. Applies to the non-blocking methods only. |
Return Value¶
The object containing a timestamp when the Backendless server has removed the object from the data store.
Example¶
The example below deletes the user record associated with the following objectId: "4D584E4D-05A3-4AC4-90C7-B80D1584E7AD".
Blocking API:
BackendlessUser Backendless.UserService.Data.Of<BackendlessUser>().FindById(String objectId);
Non-blocking API:
Task<BackendlessUser> Backendless.UserService.Data.Of<BackendlessUser>().FindByIdAsync(String objectId);
Non-blocking API with Callback:
void Backendless.UserService.Data.Of<BackendlessUser>().FindById(String objectId, AsyncCallback<BackendlessUser> callback);
Codeless Reference¶

where:
| Argument | Description |
|---|---|
objectId |
Unique identifier of a user record that must be deleted from the Users data table. |
Returns the timestamp when the Backendless server has removed the object from the data store.
Consider the following record in the Users data table:
The example below removes the user "alice@yourmail.com" associated with the objectId: "4D584E4D-05A3-4AC4-90C7-B80D1584E7AD".

The output will look as shown below after the Codeless logic runs:
