The Scenario
You spent last week running a deduplication analysis on the Parma account. You found 40 duplicate relationship IDs — contacts entered twice, once by a rep who left and once by whoever picked up their book of business. You've already decided which 40 to delete: they're in column A of your Google Sheet, marked "Delete" in column B. You're the CRM admin. You just need to pull the trigger.
Parma does not have a bulk delete UI.
The bad version:
- Open Parma, search for the first ID, open the relationship, scroll to the bottom, click Delete, confirm.
- Search for the second ID. Open. Scroll. Delete. Confirm.
- At contact 22 you realize the confirmation modal is asking "Delete relationship?" but it doesn't show you the name — just the ID — and you can't remember whether you're on row 22 or row 23 of the sheet.
40 deletions. Each one irreversible. No bulk action. No batch confirmation. Just you clicking through a UI designed for one record at a time while trying to track your position in a spreadsheet.
The Easy Way: One Prompt in SheetXAI
SheetXAI is an AI agent that lives inside your Google Sheet. It reads the relationship IDs from column A and deletes each one from Parma in a single batch — matched by ID, not by name, with a result log written back to the sheet.
Delete the Parma relationship for every ID listed in column A of this sheet — remove all 40 stale records at once
What You Get
- All 40 relationships deleted from Parma, each matched by the exact ID in your sheet.
- A result column written back: "Deleted" for each success, with an error note for any ID that couldn't be found (already deleted, or the ID was wrong).
- A permanent audit trail in the sheet showing which IDs were removed in this cleanup run and which weren't found.
What If the Data Is Not Quite Ready
The sheet has a mix of IDs to delete and IDs to keep — only delete rows marked "Delete"
For every row in this sheet where column B says "Delete," permanently remove the Parma relationship with the ID in column A. Skip all rows where column B is blank or says anything other than "Delete." Write the result in column C.
You want a dry-run first — verify the IDs exist before deleting
Check whether each relationship ID in column A exists in Parma — write "Found" or "Not found" in column B without deleting anything. I'll review the results before running the actual deletion.
Some of the duplicates have notes that should be merged into the surviving record before deletion
For each relationship ID in column A marked "Delete" in column B: first retrieve any notes attached to that relationship and append them as new notes to the surviving relationship ID in column C. Then delete the duplicate relationship. Write the outcome in column D.
Full cleanup: validate, merge notes, delete, confirm final count
Before deleting: check all IDs in column A exist in Parma and flag missing ones in column E. For IDs that exist and have notes, copy those notes to the surviving relationship ID in column C, prepending each note with "Merged from duplicate: ". Then delete all 40 relationships. After deletion, fetch the total relationship count from Parma and write it in cell G1 so I can confirm the count dropped by the expected number.
One prompt handles the verification, the data preservation, and the deletion — with a result log that covers you if anyone asks what got removed.
