Deleting Resources and Resource Features

Enterprise Architect supports a Resource and Resource Feature deletion service, through which Clients can use HTTP DELETE to delete existing Resources and Resource Features of these types:

  • Resources
         -  Model Roots
         -  Packages
         -  Elements
         -  Diagrams
         -  Connectors
  • Resource Features
         -  Package/Element/Diagram Discussions, Discussion Replies, Requirements, Constraints,
            Resource Allocations, Tests, Scenarios, Files, Linked Documents,
            Tagged Values, Maintenance Items and Project Management Items
         -  Element Run States, Attributes, Attribute Tagged Values, Operations,
            Operation Tagged Values and Operation Parameters

To delete an existing Resource/Resource Feature, the Client performs an HTTP DELETE on the Resource/Resource Feature URL. If successful, a '200 OK' response will be generated. If unsuccessful an error response will be generated.

When deleting Resource/Resource Feature, you must provide the User Authentication Token via the query string parameter 'useridentifier'; see the User Credentials for accessing OSLC RESTful API Help topic.

Refer to the tables in this topic for the information used to delete each Resource and Feature. Also see the GUID Prefix Tables topic.

Notes

  • This facility is available through the Pro Cloud Server, with a valid license
  • This facility will not be available when the Pro Cloud Server connection to the Enterprise Architect model is configured as a read-only connection
  • OSLC request to delete the Resource/Resource Feature will not be processed by the Pro Cloud Server unless the User Authentication Token is passed in with the request (via the 'useridentifier' query string in the URL)
  • When a Resource/Resource Feature is deleted via OSLC in a model that has Auditing enabled, the changes made to the model will not be logged
  • Deleting a Package will delete all its child Packages, elements and features; depending on the size of the Package this can prove to be a resource intensive task, so when the request for deleting a Package is accepted a '202 Accepted' message will be generated
    This means that the process of deleting a Package has not been completed; if a subsequent GET request on the Package returns a '404 Not Found' message, it means that the Package has been completely deleted, else, if the Package XML is returned, it means that the Package deletion is not yet complete
