Overview

This node operation deletes a specified folder within a datastore, identified either by its name or ID, in the context of a given case ID. It is useful for managing and organizing data storage by removing unnecessary or obsolete folders programmatically.

Use Case Examples

  1. Deleting a folder associated with a specific case to clean up storage after case closure.
  2. Automating folder removal in a datastore as part of a data lifecycle management workflow.

Properties

Name Meaning
Case ID The unique identifier of the case to which the folder belongs, required to specify the context for folder deletion.
Folder Name or ID The identifier or name of the folder to be deleted, selectable from a list or specified via an expression.
Options Additional options for the delete operation, such as whether to return the raw response from the API.

Output

JSON

  • success - Indicates whether the folder deletion was successful.
  • message - Provides additional information or confirmation about the deletion operation.

Troubleshooting

  • Ensure the Case ID is valid and corresponds to an existing case; otherwise, the folder deletion will fail.
  • Verify that the Folder Name or ID is correct and accessible within the specified case context.
  • If the operation returns an error, check permissions and API credentials to confirm the node has rights to delete folders.
