MethodReturn valuesDescription

purgeMail(String mailId)

Folder is definitely removed from repository.

Usually, you will purge mails into /okm:trash/userId - the personal trash user locations - but is possible to directly purge any mail from the whole repository.

When a mail is purged it will only be able to be restored from a previously repository backup. The purge action removes the mail definitely from the repository.

Example:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using com.openkm.sdk4csharp;

namespace OKMRest
{
    public class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            String host = "http://localhost:8080/OpenKM";
            String username = "okmAdmin";
            String password = "admin";
            OKMWebservice ws = OKMWebservicesFactory.newInstance(host, username, password);
            
            try
            {
                ws.purgeMail("50b7a5b9-89d2-430e-bbc9-6a6e01662a71");
            } 
            catch (Exception e)
            {

    }
}

using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using com.openkm.sdk4csharp;

namespace OKMRest
