Delete Empty Folder

Delete a folder only if it has no child projects.

  2. Delete the empty folder. Returns a long-running Operation whose name is used to poll for completion.
  3. Poll the delete operation by name until the done flag is true.

  • folderId: The folder resource id to delete (e.g. 500123).
  • folderResource: The folder resource name used as the list parent, e.g. folders/500123.
