Hi,

I am trying to delete the documents in the BPM file list control & I do not get any handle in the delete event. I need an handle to get  the properties tagged with the file that I am deleting ? How is this possible & I am using 4.4.1 version of SPARK UI ?

Hi Srikanth,

The BPM File List does not currently provide access to the document properties when deleting.  Only the On File Clicked event contains access to the document through the URL returned. Unfortunately, by the time the On Document Deleted is called, the file has already been deleted.

However, with the Enterprise version of the Toolkit, it would be possible to create a custom method based on the private method that calls the document delete service.

The following article contains the publicly available methods:

Hi Stephen,

Thanks for the insight. Yes, I am using Enterprise edition only.

Are there examples (or) steps on how to achieve the creation of custom method based on the private method ? We need this working as we want to do soft-delete rather than hard-delete the documents.

Hi Srikanth,

Here is a list of the articles we provide:

The article on Creating Your Own Control does explain how to interact with some of the JavaScript  methods.  Please note that methods created by the customer would fall outside the scope of support.
