Permanently Delete Folder
Permanently Delete Folder
Once a folder has been moved to the trash, it will stay in the trash for 30
days by default before being purged. Administrators of Business or
Enterprise accounts can alter the purge window. If you wish to permanently
delete the folder from the trash before the purge window expires, make a
DELETE request to /folders/:folder_id/trash using the trashed folder's ID
.
