Delete Item action should send items to Recycle Bin

When using a Delete Items action in a NAC workflow, the items are deleted without being moved to the recycle bin. If the items are deleted by mistake, there is currently not an easy way to recover the items which can be very detrimental to our business data and processes.

The idea is to instead of just deleting the items, please move them to the Recycle Bin.

    On review, this idea is actually about a "Delete item" action, as opposed to deleting an item within Nintex Workflow (a workflow, connection, form, etc).


    The deletion via actions is highly dependent on the 3rd party that Nintex is integrating with. Each 3rd party may offer different deletion experiences (soft vs hard), and consumers are beholden to that design. This request would need to be submitted to the specific service provider(s) you are having this issue with, requesting deleted items have a recoverable option.

    As such, I will be closing out this ticket. Please do reach out if I have misunderstood the request.
