Delete Module is a Step (action) in Modules. Permanently deletes a Joomla module by ID.
When the flow reaches this step, JOrchestrator executes Delete Module against your linked site or an external integration, using the field values you set on General and Design. Downstream steps can read the output payload fields defined for this node.
Delete Module is a action step in the Modules group. Action steps run in the middle or end of a flow. They perform work on your CMS, call external services, or transform data for the next step.
Typical reasons teams add Delete Module to a flow:
Common patterns on the canvas:
Module id on Design; deletion cannot be undone.
Use unpublish-module when you may restore the module later.
The designer shows these tabs for this node:
| Tab | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Info | Plain-language description and output payload fields for downstream steps |
| General | Canvas label and read-only node ID |
| AI | Optional assistant to help draft settings from plain language |
| Design | Node-specific configuration fields |
These fields are managed by the designer or runtime — you do not type into them directly:
| Property key | Label | Type | Required | Visible when | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
_nodeId | Node ID | node-id | No | — | — |
_payloadFields | Available Fields | payload-panel | No | — | — |
| Property key | Label | Type | Required | Visible when | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
label | Label | text | No | — | Node label |
title | Module Title | text | No | — | Enter module title |
moduleType | Module Type | text | No | — | mod_custom |
position | Position | text | No | — | position-7 |
Credentials, API keys, mailers, SMTP, and integration defaults are configured in the CMS plugin under Node Configuration, not per step on this node. Link the flow to a domain before testing CMS-backed fields.
After this step runs, later nodes can reference these fields using placeholders such as {{delete_module.id}}.
| Field key | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
id | string | Primary record identifier. |
deleted | boolean | Whether the record was deleted. |
