Is there any snap available to delete folder with 2 options?

  1. empty folder
  2. folder with subfolder and files

There is not a specific Snap, but I may have a pipeline that will help. Let me take a look.

Just to be consistent with our terminology, Iโ€™m replacing โ€œfolderโ€ with โ€œprojectโ€.

The SnapLogic Metadata Snaps are useful here.

  • To delete an empty project, you would use the SnapLogic Delete Snap.
  • To delete a flat project with files (no child directories), you would use a SnapLogic List set to All Assets, File Delete, possibly a Gate Snap if there are a lot of files to delete, then the SnapLogic Delete Snap set to delete the project once it is empty.

For projects that contain directories, โ€œDirectoryโ€ is currently not available as an asset type for these Snaps (there is an open request for it).
