Access and restore deleted documents in Recycle Bin through CWS

Me Ra

How can i access the deleted documents in the recycle bin through CWS? I know i can use use DocumentManagementClient.GetNodesInContainer on node 24633 (is this node id always the same across all users?) but is there a better way of doing this?

Also, is there a way to restore a document from the recycle bin through CWS? I did not see anything in the API Reference regarding any type of restore functionality.

Deleted documents exist in the Recycle Bin volume if Recycle Bin is in use.

This volume is created the moment you install Recycle Bin.

The DataID of the Recycle Bin will then not be constant across systems as it depends on when Recycle Bin is installed.

However, its SubType will be consistent – 3030.

 

I can’t remember if Recycle Bin is exposed as a root volume via GetRootNodeTypes / GetRootNode.

If it’s not, then you would need to query the database directly to get the DataID for that system (SubType=3030).

No such “recycle” functionality is exposed via CWS.

CWS would need to be extended to support those actions.
