Overview

The Delete Group smart service allows you to select a group and remove it from the system.

Permissions needed

The Delete Group activity can only be executed by a system administrator or by an administrator of the group. Attempting to run this node without sufficient rights causes an error message to be sent to the process administrator and pauses the process.

Data tab

Node inputs

Name	Type	Required	Multiple	Default Value	Comments
Group	Group	Yes	No		The group to delete.

Selecting a Personal Visibility input value sets other associated node input values automatically. Be aware that the node input lists on the Data tab and the dropdown lists displayed task form are not automatically filtered when this happens to show only valid options for the Visibility. Any invalid selections (made by you at design time, or by your users at runtime) are ignored when the group is created.
