What

Append .as(transactionalOperator::transactional) to the reactive chain in deleteApplicationResources so all archive operations participate in a single reactive transaction.

Why

ApplicationPageServiceCEImpl declares a TransactionalOperator field (injected at construction) but never applies it to deleteApplicationResources. The method archives action collections, actions, pages, themes, and favorites in sequence. If any step succeeds but a later step fails, the earlier writes are already committed and cannot be rolled back, leaving the application in a partially deleted state. An admin may then see orphaned actions or pages pointing to a non-existent application.

How

before:
.then(applicationService.archive(application));

after:
.then(applicationService.archive(application))
.as(transactionalOperator::transactional);

The TransactionalOperator field was already declared and injected -- it just was never used.

Closes #42117

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Improved reliability when archiving an application and its related resources by ensuring the operation completes as a single transaction.
    • Prevented partially archived applications if an error occurs during the process.

…rator

ApplicationPageServiceCEImpl declares TransactionalOperator as a
final field injected via constructor but never applies it to the
deleteApplicationResources reactive chain. If any step in the chain
fails after a prior step has already committed (e.g., archiving action
collections succeeds but archiving pages fails), the earlier writes are
not rolled back, leaving the application in a partially deleted state.

Fix: append .as(transactionalOperator::transactional) to the end of
the reactive chain in deleteApplicationResources so all archive
operations participate in a single reactive transaction.

Fixes appsmithorg#42117

Review Change Stack

Walkthrough

The application resource deletion pipeline now applies transactionalOperator after archiving the application. Resource archival operations therefore execute within a reactive transaction.

Transactional deletion
app/server/appsmith-server/src/main/java/com/appsmith/server/services/ce/ApplicationPageServiceCEImpl.java
The deletion pipeline now applies transactionalOperator after applicationService.archive(application).

Estimated code review effort: 1 (Trivial) | ~5 minutes

Mergeability Score: ⚪ Minimal · up to 7b26d

This change makes the application-resource deletion sequence transactional, preventing earlier deletions from being committed if a later step fails. No actionable merge-blocking risk remains.

Poem

Resources align,
The archive completes as one,
Transactions guard,
Ghost records fade from view,
Deletion ends cleanly.

593-594: 🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🔵 Trivial | 🏗️ Heavy lift

Add rollback integration coverage for the full deletion chain.

Make a later archive operation fail and verify that action collections, actions, pages, themes, favorites, and the application remain unchanged. This confirms that all participating publishers use the same reactive transaction.
