DeleteABSFile
Description
Deletes blob files in the specified virtual directory.
info
- Ensure that you have a properly configured SFTP connection resource set up under the Resources folder.
- SFTP file names are typically case-sensitive; therefore, abc.JPG, abc.jpg, and ABC.jpg will be saved as different files. To ensure consistency, we recommend using lower-case file names and extensions: abc.jpg.
