Deletes a single record.

Declaration

CancellablePromise deleteRecord(
	DeleteRecordParams params
);

Parameters

  • params:

    A dictionary as described in the Discussion section.

Return Value

A CancellablePromise with the following resolutions.

Discussion

If the promise is successful, it will resolve with one of the following dictionaries:

  • { statusCode: 204 }

The promise may reject and throw the following:

  • DocumentedResponseError, if the HTTP status code is 421. The result member will be a dictionary conforming to AuthenticationRequiredError.

  • DocumentedResponseError, if the HTTP status code is none of the above and in the range 400 to 599. The result member will be a dictionary conforming to RequestError.

  • ValidationError, if the parameters to the method are incorrect.

  • A FetchError descendant, if there is a problem with the network request. A reference to the request object can be used to examine the underlying cause.

Discussion

The params dictionary has the following properties:

dictionary DeleteRecordParams {
  string containerId;
  CKEnvironment environment;
  string databaseType;
  string zoneName;
  string recordName;
}

  • containerId: The container identifier. See Container.

  • environment: The container environment. For valid values, see CKEnvironment.

  • databaseType: The database type. For valid values, see CKDatabaseType.

  • zoneName: The zone name. See CKDBZone.

  • recordName: The record name. See CKDBRecord.

If the operation completes successfully, the server returns a success response.

Node.js example:


import { createConfiguration } from "@apple/cktool.target.nodejs";
import {
  CKDatabaseType,
  CKEnvironment,
  PromisesApi
} from "@apple/cktool.database";

// These parameters are commonly passed to
// operations on records.
const defaultParams = {
  containerId: "YOUR_CONTAINER_ID",
  environment: CKEnvironment.DEVELOPMENT,
  databaseType: CKDatabaseType.PUBLIC,
  zoneName: "_defaultZone",
};

try {
  const api = new PromisesApi({
    configuration: createConfiguration(),
    security: {
      // You can obtain tokens from CloudKit Console.
      "ManagementTokenAuth": "YOUR_MANAGEMENT_TOKEN",
      "UserTokenAuth": "YOUR_USER_TOKEN"
    },
  });
  await api.deleteRecord({
    ...defaultParams,
    recordName: "RECORD_NAME"
  });
} catch(ex) {
  // Handle error
}
