puts response.read_bodyRemoves the file or directory (recursively) at the given path inside the sandbox.
Returns an empty
{} body regardless of whether the path existed — the operation
is idempotent.
Directory removal is recursive. All files and subdirectories under the specified
path are permanently deleted.
Path Parameters
string
required
The sandbox identifier. Format:
sbx-<8 chars>.Query Parameters
string
required
Absolute path of the file or directory to remove inside the sandbox.Example:
/home/user/old-results/Response
Returns an empty JSON object{}.
Example
curl -X DELETE "https://api.declaw.ai/sandboxes/sbx-a1b2c3d4/files?path=/home/user/old-results" \
-H "X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY"
from declaw import Sandbox
sbx = Sandbox.connect("sbx-a1b2c3d4", api_key="YOUR_API_KEY", domain="api.declaw.ai")
sbx.files.remove("/home/user/old-results")
import { Sandbox } from "@declaw/sdk";
const sbx = await Sandbox.connect("sbx-a1b2c3d4", {
apiKey: "YOUR_API_KEY",
domain: "api.declaw.ai",
});
await sbx.files.remove("/home/user/old-results");
