400Bad Request - Deleted Filter Required

When listing resources such as components, themes, sites and templates you can either list resources in the trash or not in the trash; you cannot list resources that are both in and not in the trash. This error indicates that the combination of includeDeleted and the q query parameter are trying to list resources in the trash and not in the trash.

Error Code

OCE-DOCS-001007

Resolution - Listing Resources in Trash

Specify both includeDeleted=true and deleted eq "true" to list resources in the trash.

Resolution - Listing Resources Not in Trash

Do not specify includeDeleted=true or use the expression deleted eq "true" in the filter to list resources not in the trash.

For example, if a resource is returned as part of a collection, the canonical link will provide the URL path for the canonical form of the individual resource.

  • How to handle component conflicts.

    • create - Import the component with a new identity if a component exists with the same identity. Optionally, a new component name can
    be specified to avoid any name conflict.

    then a new component name will also have to be specified.
    • overwrite - Overwrite the conflicting component with the one being imported if a component exists with the same identity
    • skip - Do not import the component if there is a conflict
