When working across different platforms or systems, it’s essential to understand the limitations related to data synchronization. One critical area where limitations exist is the synchronization of deleted items. In this article, we’ll explore the current limitation regarding deletion sync and provide a recommended workaround.
The issue arises when an item (such as an issue, task, or record) is deleted on one platform. Unfortunately, this deletion does not automatically trigger a corresponding deletion on the other platform. In other words, if you delete an issue in Platform A, it won’t be automatically removed from Platform B.
To address this limitation, consider implementing the following workaround:
Create a “Deleted” Status or Label:
Go to your app instance and create a custom status or label specifically for deleted items in your workflow.
Apply this status or label to any item you want to mark as deleted.
Manual Cleanup:
Regularly review items with the Deleted status or label.
Manually erase these items from the other platform as needed.
Please note that syncing deleted items is not supported, and there are no current plans to implement it. While this workaround adds an extra step, it helps mitigate the limitation effectively.
