Download Entities of a deleted Entity List.

Usage

entitylist_trash_download(
  pid = get_default_pid(),
  dataset_id,
  local_dir = tempdir(),
  url = get_default_url(),
  un = get_default_un(),
  pw = get_default_pw(),
  retries = get_retries(),
  odkc_version = get_default_odkc_version(),
  orders = get_default_orders(),
  tz = get_default_tz(),
  verbose = get_ru_verbose()
)

Arguments

pid

The numeric ID of the project, e.g.: 2.

Default: get_default_pid.

Set default pid through ru_setup(pid="...").

See vignette("Setup", package = "ruODK").

dataset_id

The numeric ID of the deleted Dataset, e.g. from entitylist_list(deleted = TRUE).

local_dir

The local folder to save the downloaded CSV to. If the folder does not exist it is created. Default: tempdir().

url

The ODK Central base URL without trailing slash.

Default: get_default_url.

Set default url through ru_setup(url="...").

See vignette("Setup", package = "ruODK").

un

The ODK Central username (an email address). Default: get_default_un. Set default un through ru_setup(un="..."). See vignette("Setup", package = "ruODK").

pw

The ODK Central password. Default: get_default_pw. Set default pw through ru_setup(pw="..."). See vignette("Setup", package = "ruODK").

retries

The number of attempts to retrieve a web resource.

This parameter is given to RETRY(times = retries).

Default: 3.

odkc_version

The ODK Central version as a semantic version string (year.minor.patch), e.g. "2023.5.1". The version is shown on ODK Central's version page /version.txt. Discard the "v". ruODK uses this parameter to adjust for breaking changes in ODK Central.

Default: get_default_odkc_version or "2023.5.1" if unset.

Set default get_default_odkc_version through ru_setup(odkc_version="2023.5.1").

See vignette("Setup", package = "ruODK").

orders

(vector of character) Orders of datetime elements for lubridate.

Default: c("YmdHMS", "YmdHMSz", "Ymd HMS", "Ymd HMSz", "Ymd", "ymd").

tz

A timezone to convert dates and times to.

Read vignette("setup", package = "ruODK") to learn how ruODK's timezone can be set globally or per function.

verbose

Whether to display debug messages or not.

Read vignette("setup", package = "ruODK") to learn how ruODK's verbosity can be set globally or per function.

Value

A list of three items:

• entities (data.frame) The deleted Entities as parsed from CSV.

• http_status (int) The HTTP status code of the response.

• downloaded_to (fs_path) The path to the downloaded CSV file.

Details

Returns a CSV snapshot of the Entities belonging to a soft-deleted Dataset. This exports Entity data before the Dataset is permanently purged after 30 days in the trash. The CSV format is identical to entitylist_download(), except the filename carries a -deleted suffix. This endpoint uses the numeric Dataset ID rather than the Dataset name, because the name alone cannot identify a deleted Dataset unambiguously. The numeric ID comes from listing Datasets with entitylist_list(deleted = TRUE). This endpoint requires ODK Central 2026.1 or later.
