What to use the Delete rows from a Google Sheet step for


This step does what it says on the step: it deletes rows from a Google Sheet. But why would you want to do this?

We use it as part of a technique called batching. This involves looping through steps using a jump step. For example, we start by reading a single row from a Google Sheet; we execute automation using that row's data. Then, we delete the row before moving on to read a new row.
