Is there a way to programmatically view and delete deferred reports?

Hi Web Guy

I looked at the REST API and there are no REST calls to do this. Since no one else has replied I would suggest you open a case with techsupport.

Thanks,


Thank you for using Focal Point!

You can set Deferred reports to delete themselves after X amount of Days. I haven't had to deal with this in V8.X but in V7.x, since it was an htm file, the reports would remain listed as Unknown, but the files would have been deleted. I would assume this works better in V8.X since it should all be stored in the DB now... atleast I would think that it is.

If I remember well (been a will that I haven't used deferred) it's not fixed, it remains Unknown once expired even under WF8105M

Same here.

Items that should have been deleted are now "unknown".

This is what we found:
