Purge directory

Changed on

Deletes a directory or container and all of its contents. This can take a long time, so run it in the background with Prefer: respond-async to avoid HTTP timeouts.

Request

Headers

Prefer'respond-async'

Set to respond-async to run the call in the background. Rclone returns a 202 with a job ID right away, and job/status reports progress. This has the same effect as the _async param in rclone's docs, but _async alone returns a 200 instead of a 202.

_filterobject
