I'll have to work with this awhile, because sometimes .../search#DELETE/{id} 
removes the recording from the list and sometimes it does not.
 
However, I already see that the Working File Repository DELETE mediapackage 
REST call only deletes elements from the media package, like track-1, then 
track-2, etc...  It does not have the capability of deleting the entire 
directory.  And, it won't let me use * to delete all the elements of a 
mediapackage.  
 
Nor does it delete the workspace files.  However, perhaps the workspace files 
are supposed to get deleted during cleanup after a successful ingest?????

Hi Stephanie

First you can activate the episode UI in your tenant configuration file 
$FELIX_HOME/etc/load named org.opencastproject.organization-<tenant>.cfg: 
prop.adminui.i18n_tab_episode.enable=true.
Then you will see a new tab 'Episode' in the admin UI. Archived recordings are 
stored under felix/work/opencast/archive/, you can changes this path in the 
config.properties.
Now if you remove an episode from the archive, you can see it.

Removing a recording completley from the system is not so easy, you have to 
remove it from the search service which removes it from the recording UI and 
engange UI.
And then you can remove it from the file system by using the Working File 
Repositroy endpoint or do it manually. After that the recording is still in the 
DB job table, but this shouldn't be a problem.

Search Endpoint: http://localhost:8080/docs.html?path=/search DELETE /{id}
Working File Repository Endpoint: http://localhost:8080/docs.html?path=/files 
DELETE /mediapackage/{mediaPackageID}/{mediaPackageElementID}

I have been trying to use the Episode Service REST call to remove old 
recordings from my matterhorn system.
It appears to remove the episode from the archive (where is the archive, where 
can I look to determine where my archive is???).  I get a 204 response the 
first time I delete a media package, then I get a 400 error, so it removed 
something, and then can't remove it again.
 
I have been expecting it to remove the files in 
/opt/matterhorn/felix/work/opencast/files/mediapackage/<mediapackage id>/
but that does not seem to be the case.
 
Is there another REST call to use to delete the files from my 
.../opencast/files/mediapackage/<id> and 
.../opencast/workspace/mediapackage/<id>
 
And, perhaps can anyone point me in the direction of the location of the code 
for the REST calls, so if they don't do what I want, I can change them or add a 
new one???
Or, maybe someone can point me in the direction of the documentation that 
explains this...
 
Thanks so much for anyone's input.
 
Stephanie
