Files/Directories deleted via webhdfs rest call doesn't use the skiptrash 
feature, it would be deleted permanently. This feature is very important us 
because our user has deleted large directory accidentally.

By default, Skiptrash option is set to true, skiptrash=true. Any files, Using 
CURL will be permanently deleted.

Example:

curl -iv -X DELETE 
"http://xxxx:50070/webhdfs/v1/tmp/sampledata?op=DELETE&user.name=hdfs&recursive=true";

 

Use skiptrash=false, to move files to trash Instead.

Example:

curl -iv -X DELETE 
"http://xxxx:50070/webhdfs/v1/tmp/sampledata?op=DELETE&user.name=hdfs&recursive=true&skiptrash=false";
