Hi,

when I try to intercept a DELETE default route, it works when I go to the record summary and select `Delete photo` in the Actions menu

Here is my interception:

However, when I use the `Delete` button from the record list after selecting one record, the call is not intercepted and it directly deletes the record in the DB.

Is it a normal behaviour ?

Best regards

Hello @guillaumejauffret,

The delete call with multiple records is not intercepted by your route definition because it does not match the path:

- For a single record: DELETE `/PE_File/:fileId`
- Multiple records: DELETE `/PE_File`

You can define a second route to override the bulk delete and handle the multiple records deletion with your function.

Hope this helps !

Best regards,
