Removing user from SharePoint User Information List

Hello all,

 

I am trying to create a workflow that removes users from the SharePoint User Information List (https://tenantname.sharepoint.com/sites/Sitename/_layouts/15/people.aspx?membershipGroupId=0).

 

Researching, I could not find any way to achieve this (neither using SharePoint HTTP or Graph API step).

 

Using "Get Items" to retrieve the List and then "Delete Item" doesn't work. Also, using SharePoint HTTP step as advised in the following article doesn't seem to apply:

Did someone manage to remove users from the User Information List ? I know it's a hidden list, thus a bit more tricky, but surely there must be a way, as it is possible using PowerShell.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I managed to solve it and I attached a picture of the solution in case someone else stumbles upon this.
