# doo.functions.audit

The `doo.functions.audit.delete` function deletes audit records older than a specified datetime in a Tabidoo application. You can optionally limit the deletion to specific tables.

## Parameters

### applicationId *(required)*

**Type:** `string`  
The ID of the application from which the audit records will be deleted.

### olderThan *(optional)*

**Type:** date (ISO 8601 datetime format)  
Deletes records older than the specified datetime. If omitted, no time constraint is applied.

### tableIdList *(required)*

**Type:** `array of strings`  
An array of table IDs to limit the deletion to specific tables.

**Example Usage**

 Delete audit records older than a specific date for selected tables

```javascript
await doo.functions.audit.delete({
    applicationId: '123456789',
    olderThan: new Date()
    tableIdList: ['987654321', '192837465']
});
```

Note: For `applicationId` (appId) and `tableIdList`, always use the **internal IDs** of the objects. **Do not** use nicenames or display names of apps/tables.  
*(e.g.,* `*applicationId: "64f..."*`*,* `*tableIdList: ["efbl-123","prf-456"]*`*, not* `*"CRM"*` *or* `*"Orders"*`*.)*

## Use Cases

-   Regular cleanup of audit records to optimize database performance.
-   Removing old logs for compliance with data retention policies.
-   Limiting audit record deletion to specific tables to maintain necessary logs in other areas.
-   Ensuring only outdated audit records are deleted while keeping recent ones for tracking changes.
