How to delete content with AP.request

Efrain_Sotelo February 18, 2020

Hi, 

Following the FrontEndy approach (https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/confluence/lesson-2-adding-content-customers-ahoy/) , I learned how to GET and POST data but now I want to delete content. 

The request JS api does not show explicitly the DELETE type (https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/confluence/jsapi/request/)

 

I would like to know what can I use for deleting?

  • The backendy approach? But how to call it from the .hbs file
  • Is there a frontendy approach for that?, my unsuccessful try was this:

<script>

$('#cleanButton').on('click', function(){

AP.request({

   url: '/rest/api/content/4390970',

   type: 'DELETE',

   success: function(){ console.log("Item successfully DELETED"); },

   error: function(err){ console.log("Error deleting item"); }

});

});

</script>

 

 

Thanks for help in advance, I am learning and I am new in this "request" world.
