Delete one or multiple documents from a SharePoint library

0

Hi George,

I'm not a sharepoint expert, I have this comfort that didn't had to work with it, although after doing some research on microsoft side documentation it looks like filles/folders and lists are managed by different API endpoints:
* https://{site_url}/_api/web/GetFileByServerRelativeUrl('/Folder Name/{file_name}') - This is for files/folders
* https://{site_url}/_api/web/lists/GetByTitle('Test')/items({item_id}) - This is for lists

I would assume, that action which is called 'Delete a list element' will work with lists, and use second endpoint - so it's not handling files/folders scenario - there is no some switch to change it.

You could try to make this case work with 'Invoke REST Web service' action, a little bit more work but should be doable (if i remember correctly Daniel from forum done something like that)

Hi, I believe id is integer number in sharepoint library. It starts with 1. On attached picture you are showing document id Value. You should enable id in the view to test this.

When creating element in a list you can write back id to webcon form. Unfotrunatley webcon does not support this on a library. The reason for this is unknown to me.

Yes you are right. I have mostly followed the Microsoft blogs for such queries. But you can also visit the below URL regarding SharePoint Migration.
