Configure a Delete News Sync Flow

The delete News Sync flow allows you to delete a news post in Staffbase when the corresponding news post is deleted in SharePoint based on an automatic event triggered by a webhook. This flow is ideal for keeping both platforms up to date, especially if you have SharePoint as your intranet solution for the desktop workforce and Staffbase as a mobile app solution for your frontline workforce.
