Deleting wikis from the system
Use the WikisLibraryService delete commands to delete wikis.
Before you begin
To run administrative commands, you must use the wsadmin client. For more information, see Starting the wsadmin client.
Many commands require an ID as an input parameter, including library IDs, user IDs, policy IDs, and file IDs. You can find an ID by using special commands. For example, when you run the WikisMemberService.getByEmail(string email) command, where you provide a user's email address as input, the output includes the user's ID. You can also find IDs by using feeds. For more information, see the IBM® Connections API documentation.
About this task
