Which write action in Salesforce is responsible for removing a record from the object?

The write action responsible for removing a record from an object in Salesforce is Delete. This action specifically targets existing records and permanently removes them from the database. When a Delete action is performed, the specified record is discarded, and all associated data is lost unless the record is moved to a recycle bin or similar temporary storage depending on the Salesforce configuration.

In contrast, the Update action is used to modify existing records, making changes to the data without removing the record itself. The Upsert action is a combination of Insert and Update; it adds a new record if one does not exist or updates it if it does. The Create action, as the name implies, is dedicated solely to adding new records to the object and will not remove any existing records. Thus, the only action capable of permanently eliminating a record from an object is Delete.
