### Documents  IDs (list)

The list of IDs of the documents you want to delete.

### Collection

The name or ID of the collection the documents you want to delete are stored in.

### Trigger ID (optional)

This will link the action with a [Action Listener](https://estare.gitbook.io/firebase-auth-firestore-and-storage-plugin/plugin-elements/firebase-action-listener) of the same ID.&#x20;

If left blank, all listeners on the page with blank ID's will be triggered at the same time, so we suggest to always define a Trigger ID.

When the function finishes running, it will trigger the [List Operation Finished](https://estare.gitbook.io/firebase-auth-firestore-storage-plugin/plugin-elements/firebase-action-listener#list-operation-finished) event.

## <mark style="color:blue;">Triggered events</mark>

Those events are triggered by an [Action Listener](https://estare.gitbook.io/firebase-auth-firestore-and-storage-plugin/plugin-elements/firebase-action-listener) with the same ID as the [Trigger ID](#trigger-id-optional) provided on the action.

* List Operation Finished (if the action was successful)
* Error in Action (if an error occurs)
