puter.threads.delete()

Deletes a thread and optionally its child threads.

Syntax 

puter.threads.delete(uuid, options);

Parameters

uuid (string) (required)

The UUID of the thread to delete.

options (object) (optional)

An object containing the following properties:

  • recursive (boolean) (optional): If set to true, deletes all child threads recursively. Default is false.

Return value

An empty object (reserved for future use).

Permissions Required

The current actor needs the thread:UUID-OF-THREAD:delete permission to delete the thread, unless they are the owner.

To delete child threads recursively, the actor needs either:

  • thread:UUID-OF-THREAD:children-of:delete permission (to delete any child thread)
  • thread:UUID-OF-THREAD:own-children-of:delete permission (to delete only child threads they own)
