Delete Module for Joomla

Delete Module is a Step (action) in Modules. Permanently deletes a Joomla module by ID.

Overview

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.

Why use 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:

  • Delete Module on your linked Joomla site when the flow reaches this step
  • Delete module based on webhook, schedule, or CMS event data
  • Integrate Modules operations with messaging, AI, or database steps in one canvas

Example workflows

Common patterns on the canvas:

  1. Trigger or Webhook → upstream steps → Delete ModuleSend Email or CMS update
  2. Scheduled triggerDelete ModuleDebug (while testing) → production action

How to set it up

Module id on Design; deletion cannot be undone.

Good to know

Use unpublish-module when you may restore the module later.

CMS site configuration (not on this node's properties panel)

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.

Output payload fields

After this step runs, later nodes can reference these fields using placeholders such as {{delete_module.id}}.
