Sometimes you may want to put the unwanted data in the trash before deleting it altogether.

Now, let’s see how to put unwanted data in the trash.

  • The trash function marks the records as trash

trash(type: HypiMutationType!, arcql: String!): Int!

  • The get and find queries do not display the trashed objects by default
  • ArcQL filter is used to select the records to be trashed

Just like the previous post, we will work with the same ReadObject data type here.

type ReadObject {
   field1: String
   field2: Int
}

Sample Query

mutation {
  trash(type: ReadObject, 
  arcql: "hypi.id = '01FH5MKT5ZXHA7KNKTAK48H6KP'")
}
#result
{
  "data": {
    "trash": 1
  }
}

Output
The trash function returns the number of records marked as trash.

Query with Variables

mutation trashObject($type: HypiMutationType!, $arcql: String!) {
  trash(type: $type, arcql: $arcql)
}

#query variables
{
  "type": "ReadObject",
  "arcql": "hypi.id = '01FH5MKT5ZXHA7KNKTAK48H6KP'"
}

Please note query variables has the form of JSON.
