Is it possible to remove attachments by using GlideSysAttachment? I'm looking for a function similar to GlideSysAttachment.copy(...), something like GlideSysAttachment.remove(...) or GlideSysAttachment.delete(...). If there is such a function where is it documented?

If you want to remove all attachments from the record, you can use the following where recordGR is the gliderecord representing the record from which you want to remove attachments.



var attach = new GlideSysAttachment();



attach.deleteAll(recordGR);

@Brad Tilton : Thank you for this helpful answer! I'm trying to implement something like this in a catalog page's workflow, and the deleteAttachment method works when I make the request, but fails when someone with fewer permissions makes the request. Do you know if there is a workaround such that I can still have deleteAttachment in my workflow Run Script and have it still work when users with fewer permissions submit the catalog page? Seems like this method requires the current executing user to have some sort of admin role.
