Since you're modifying the folders content, you need to use the /foldersfeed
instead of the /documents list feed. Otherwise, MoveOutOfFolder()
simply deletes the document, referencing the edit link.
The documentation should clearer on this.
This worked for me:
...
for f in feed.entry:
if f.title.text == 'tfol':
eto = f
# eto.content.src is the folder's content (list of child documents)
feed = gd.GetDocumentListFeed(eto.content.src)
# move out first document in folder 'tfol'
entry = feed.entry[0]
print 'Moving document "%s" out of folder "%s"' % (entry.title.text,
eto.title.text)
gd.MoveOutOfFolder(entry)
So any time you're modifying the contents of a folder, the URIs need to be
/folders/....:
