Error Handling

Parameter Name

Description

When an error occurs, the action will stop execution.

Retry command

The action retries the command if an error occurs.

Ignore error & continue

The action ignores the error and continues workflow execution.

Variables Produced

This action doesn't produce any variables.

Using Variables in Conditions

You can use variables from earlier steps to fill fields marked as supporting variables in the UI (often indicated with {x}). For example, you might pass a table name or ID obtained in a previous step to dynamically choose which table to delete. When building conditions, reference these variables to decide whether to run this command or select the locating mode and corresponding value.

Notes

  • Ensure you have already connected to Lark Base using the Connect Lark Base command and that the session has not expired.

  • You cannot delete the last remaining table in a base; add another table or cancel the deletion if only one remains.

  • If multiple tables share the same name, use By ID to avoid deleting the wrong table.

  • Deletion is irreversible; confirm the correct target table before running in production.

  • Permissions must allow table deletion in the selected base; insufficient permissions will cause errors.
