Get around delete permissions with API call?
I want my users to be able to delete records from a certain table, but only in certain situations. Since they only ever view the records from a specific table, and there's no way to set up custom dele...

Great Question as you are close.
So just setup an Automation. Automations run under the permissions of whoever last created or edited the Automation.
Then depending on how fancy you want to get, you can just have a form rule to expose a checkbox field to delete the record or make a URL formula button to check a checkbox (where the URL formula will be null if the conditions are not met).
Then the user triggers a "request deletion" type update and the Automation will do the delete.

Thanks Mark, that makes sense. In my case I'll use a checkbox to trigger the automation I think.
