could you please share some thought on this.

The request requires three parameters

refsysid = system id** of the reference to remove

refid = id of the container to remove reference from

reflib = library of the container to remove reference from

** SYSTEM_ID or REMOTE_SYSTEM_ID if not the same library as the container

The DELETE request url takes only two parameters,

/edocsapi/v1.0/documents/8/references?library=ARDEMO

8 here refers to the DOC NUM of document for which the reference to be deleted. ARDEMO is the library name. Where do we need to pass the System Id ? Please provide the sample working request.

Al Slapsys

To delete an individual reference:

/edocsapi/v1.0/documents/8/references?library=ARDEMO&refsysid=<systemid>&refid=<id>&reflib=<lib>

Al Slapsys

This may save you a couple of steps...

Delete all the references at the time of delete can be done by including the "delrefs" parameter

/edocsapi/v1.0/documents/8?library=ARDEMO&delrefs
