Deleting items
Delete a single item from its row or record, or select many rows and remove them in one batched operation with automatic retry on throttling.
Deleting one item
Click 🗑 on a row in the table view or on a record in the JSON view. The Delete Item dialog shows the full JSON of the item so you can confirm you have the right one, then Delete issues a DeleteItem by primary key. A toast confirms and the grid refreshes from page 1.
Bulk delete

Tick the checkboxes in the table view, shift-click for ranges or use the header checkbox for every visible row. Only rows on the current page can be selected.
- Click 🗑 Delete in the toolbar
The dialog is titled Delete N Items and previews the key of every selected item, up to 50 lines, followed by “… and M more” when needed.

DynamoOps sends
BatchWriteItemrequests in chunks of 25 keys. Throttled or unprocessed keys are retried up to three times with exponential backoff.
- Success: “N items deleted”. The selection is cleared and the grid refreshes.
- Partial success: “D deleted, U not processed (throttled) — try again”. Re-run the query, reselect the remaining rows and delete again.
- Consumed write capacity is reported to Cost Analytics as a single batch operation.
To remove every item in a table, use Truncate Table instead of paging through selections.
