Delete Detection Files

Determines if the delete detection files are deleted once processing is completed.

For the delete-detection stage of the generated Azure Data Factory processing, this setting gates the standard file deletion: the delete-detection files are only removed when the regular delete-files settings are active and this setting is enabled.

When to Change This Setting​

Keep the default N to retain the delete-detection files after processing. Enable it to clean them up once they have been processed, matching the delete behavior of the regular source files.
