I have been trying to delete a field on an object in Workday and haven’t found a way. If I’m just writing a SOAP request, I can pass in an empty tag like “< emptytag/>” to delete a value. With Snap...
I have run into cases with the Workday web services where deleting a field must contain a descriptor value in the tag in order to successfully perform the delete. I have a use case for this, but I’m using the SOAP snap in this particular case instead of the Workday Write snap.
If you’re using Workday Write, I recommend populating the field Descriptor attribute with any non-empty string value. In my SOAP experience, the non-empty text that you use doesn’t matter. You should leave the fields ID type and value out of the mapper.
