Remove an attachment using its originId - Fluid Topics - Latest

To remove a map attachment from a DITA map by its originId, add the following lines to the FluidTopicsControlFile.xml file:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<controlFile>
  <resources>
    <resource>
      <filePath>my_map.ditamap</filePath>
      <instances>
        <instance>
          <filePath>version1.ditaval</filePath>
          <attachments>
            <attachment>
              <isAttached>false</isAttached>
              <originId>my_attachment</originId>
            </attachment>
          </attachments>
        </instance>
      </instances>
    </resource>
  </resources>
</controlFile>

Where:

• resource

  • filePath expects the absolute path to the DITA map file in the archive used to upload the DITA map to Fluid Topics. It can be retrieved from the Metadata journal in the dita:mapPath field.

• instance

  • filePath expects the absolute path to the DITAVAL file in the archive used to upload the DITA map to Fluid Topics. It can be retrieved from the Metadata journal in the dita:ditavalPath field.

• attachment

  • isAttached expects the false value to detach the attachment from the DITA map.
  • originId is the ID defined in the FluidTopicsControlFile.xml file when the file was originally attached to the DITA map.
