Remove obsolete BambooHR files after Coda deletion

Keep record cleanup aligned with an approved source deletion and retention decision.

Trigger

Coda Document Deleted Trigger

Triggers when a Coda document is deleted.

Action

Delete employee file by id

Deletes a specific file associated with an employee in the bamboohr system. this endpoint should be used when you need to permanently remove a document or file from an employee's record. it's particularly useful for maintaining data accuracy, complying with document retention policies, or removing outdated or incorrect files. the operation is irreversible, so caution should be exercised when using this endpoint. it does not provide any confirmation or retrieve the file content before deletion, so it's advisable to verify the correct fileid before making the call.

Why this helps

Deleting a source document does not automatically remove its obsolete HR attachment, leaving cleanup tasks easy to miss.

  • Reduce stale document buildup
  • Make retention actions consistent
  • Create a clear cleanup report

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Coda and BambooHR once in Notis.
  • 2Create an automation for approved employee file cleanup.
  • 3Tell Notis to delete only the matching BambooHR employee file when a deleted Coda document identifies it and the deletion is authorized.
  • 4Pick the Coda Document Deleted trigger and choose where run reports go.
  • 5Test with one approved deletion case.

Questions about this workflow

Will every deleted Coda document delete a file?

No. Instruct Notis to act only when the deleted document identifies a specific BambooHR file and an approved retention decision.

Can this be undone?

Deletion is permanent in BambooHR, so use this workflow only for confirmed cleanup cases.
