When subscribing to a data table delete event, it only provides the KEY for the record that was deleted. It would be nice to provide the values that were deleted as well.
In our particular use case, we were using a data table to track referenced entities. So if a record was deleted we would know what data was getting lost, but when you subscribe to the delete event on a data table, it only returns the id of the row that was just deleted, and you are unable to query using that id, because that row no longer exists. So you have no idea what was deleted in that record.
Similar use case, when we would subscribe to the Update event on a data table, we needed to know the previous value not just the updated value, but only the id is returned. You can use the id to query for the record but it contains nothing of the old value, only the new value.
Currently using the Data change event on a property in ThingWorx it provides oldValue and newValue. It would be nice if this functionality was extended to the delete and update data table events.
