Administering an Encyclopedia volume : Managing Encyclopedia volume items : Deleting an item
 
Deleting an item
The Actuate Information Delivery API supports deleting items from an Encyclopedia volume, such as a file, a user, a folder, a group, a job schedule, or a job notice.
There are three types of Delete operations:
*Delete a single item identified by Name or Id.
*Delete a list of items identified by NameList or IdList.
*Delete all items that match a given condition using Search.
For some Delete operations, you can indicate whether a deletion is recursive, meaning it applies to all items within the item to delete. For example, if DeleteFile is recursive and the file is a folder, the operation deletes the folder and any files and subfolders within it.
A Delete operation returns a status message when it completes successfully or stops at the first failed operation.
