How to Delete Customer Voice Invitations in Dataverse
Question details
The user is looking for the correct method to delete Customer Voice survey invitations directly within Dataverse without causing data discrepancies.
- Product
- Dynamics 365 Dataverse
- Device & OS
- not provided
- Scenario
- Managing and removing synchronized Customer Voice survey invitations from Dataverse tables.
- Observed behavior
- Deleting an invitation from Dataverse does not automatically remove the corresponding invitation from the Customer Voice application, requiring specific integration handling.
Before attempting to delete records in Dataverse, be aware that forcefully removing integrated records can lead to orphaned data in Customer Voice. Always verify Microsoft's supported integration methods first.
Consult the Dynamics Community for Supported Methods
Because direct deletion in Dataverse may bypass necessary Customer Voice service calls, it is highly recommended to seek specialist guidance to prevent data inconsistencies.
Customer Voice and Dataverse are tightly integrated, but they do not always sync operations like hard deletions automatically out-of-the-box. Deleting a Customer Voice invitation directly from a Dataverse table might leave the corresponding invitation active or orphaned inside the Customer Voice interface.
To safely remove these records, specialized API service calls or specific Power Automate flows designed for Customer Voice integration are required.
Navigate to the official Microsoft Dynamics 365 Community Forum in your web browser.
Use the forum search bar to look for 'Delete Customer Voice invitation Dataverse' to see if verified Microsoft specialists have provided a supported Power Automate flow or API script.
If no existing solution matches your environment, click 'Ask a Question' to create a new post. Detail your exact Dataverse setup and explain that you need a supported method to sync deletions with Customer Voice.
Analyze Your Customer Voice Survey Data with WPS Office

Frequently Asked Questions
Why do deleted Customer Voice invitations still appear in the app after being removed from Dataverse?
The native integration between Customer Voice and Dataverse often requires explicit service calls to process deletions. Removing the row in Dataverse simply deletes the database record without triggering the necessary webhook or API call to Customer Voice.
Can I use Power Automate to delete Customer Voice invitations safely?
Yes, but you must use the specific Customer Voice connectors and actions within Power Automate rather than standard Dataverse row deletion actions to ensure the deletion synchronizes correctly.
Is it safe to use bulk delete in Dataverse for survey records?
No, using standard Dataverse bulk delete for integrated records is generally unsafe unless a specialized sync mechanism is in place. It will likely result in orphaned survey invitations in the Customer Voice application.
