Demonstrates how to delete a SharePoint file.

Chilkat Go Downloads Go Package for Windows, MacOS, Linux, Alpine Linux, Solaris

    // This requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
    // See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

    http := chilkat.NewHttp()

    // If SharePoint Windows classic authentication is used, then set the 
    // Login, Password, LoginDomain, and NtlmAuth properties.
    http.SetLogin("SHAREPOINT_USERNAME")
    http.SetPassword("SHAREPOINT_PASSWORD")
    http.SetLoginDomain("SHAREPOINT_NTLM_DOMAIN")
    http.SetNtlmAuth(true)

    // The more common case is to use SharePoint Online authentication (via the SPOIDCRL cookie).
    // If so, do not set Login, Password, LoginDomain, and NtlmAuth, and instead
    // establish the cookie as shown at SharePoint Online Authentication

    // This example will delete the file named "penguins2.jpg" 
    // which is located in the "/Documents" folder.

    req := chilkat.NewHttpRequest()
    req.SetHttpVerb("POST")
    req.SetPath("/_api/web/GetFileByServerRelativeUrl('/Documents/penguins2.jpg')")

    // We need to add a form digest value in the X-RequestDigest header field.
    // See this example for details on
    // how to get (and cache) a form digest value
    req.AddHeader("X-RequestDigest","SHAREPOINT_FORM_DIGEST")

    // Add additional required headers.
    req.AddHeader("IF-MATCH","*")
    req.AddHeader("X-HTTP-Method","DELETE")

    // Send the POST using https (TLS). Port 443 is the default port for https.
    bUseTls := true
    resp := http.SynchronousRequest("SHAREPOINT_HTTPS_DOMAIN",443,bUseTls,req)
    if http.LastMethodSuccess() != true {
        fmt.Println(http.LastErrorText())

    // If failed, the response body contains XML 
    xml := chilkat.NewXml()
    xml.LoadXml(resp.BodyStr())

    if resp.StatusCode() != 200 {
        fmt.Println("Response status code = ", resp.StatusCode())
        fmt.Println(*xml.GetXml())

        // For example, if the file did not exist, this would be the XML response:
        // <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
        // <m:error xmlns:m="http://schemas.microsoft.com/ado/2007/08/dataservices/metadata">

        // </m:error>
