HI,

I'm developing a new "scm" advisor (Server-side) for to delete specific file after successful deliver step. 


I've found several articles to delete files and delete file content, but only Client-Side 

Does anyone know how to do this? 

Thank you!

Why are you trying to delete a file after you have delivered it? That will create a deletion stub that would become a change set that also needs to be delivered.

Hi kenny,
From admin perspective I want to delete few files from stream which are not part of project anymore. And i want those file to be deleted on specific event.

 Several things:

  1. An advisor is a pre-condition that can guard operations and fail if the operation is not allowed
  2. A pre condition MUST not delete or modify any of its operational data e.g. https://rsjazz.wordpress.com/2012/12/14/do-not-modify-the-triggering-element-in-an-operationadvisor/
  3. Why would you even want to delete a file in the server API?
I also agree with Kenny.
