Sometimes you just need to completely remove work product from a case. In many instances, the API require that you first remove work product from all items before removing it entirely from the case. This repository contains a series of scripts to assist in removing:
- Custom Metadata
- Tags
- Exclusions
- Production Sets
- Item Sets
- Item Comments
- Custodians
Note that the scripts remove the above work product as best they can based on available API methods. Records of these things will still exist in the case's history!
Provides you with a selection of custom metadata fields. You check the fields you wish to remove. Additionally, if items were selected when the script is ran, the script allows you the option to only remove those fields from the selected items in addition to the option to remove those fields from all items in the case.
Provides you with a selection of tags to be removed from items and the case. It is important to note that you cannot remove a tag which still has child tags, so selecting a tag which has child tags implicitly means the script will also remove those child tags. Child tags are removed before their parents to adhere to this.
Provides you with a list of exclusion names. You select the exclusions for which all items in those exclusions will be "included", effectively deleting the exclusion.
Provides you with a list of production sets. Selected production sets are deleted from the case.
Provides you with a list of item sets. Selected item sets are deleted from the case.
Removes comment from selected items which have a comment.
Provides you with a list of custodian names present in the current case. Selected custodians are unassigned from items assigned to them, then deleted from the case.
Begin by downloading the latest release of this code. Extract the contents of the archive into your Nuix scripts directory. In Windows the script directory is likely going to be either of the following:
%appdata%\Nuix\Scripts- User level script directory%programdata%\Nuix\Scripts- System level script directory
This script relies on code from Nx to present a settings dialog and progress dialog. This JAR file is not included in the repository (although it is included in release downloads). If you clone this repository, you will also want to obtain a copy of Nx.jar by either:
- Building it from the source
- Downloading an already built JAR file from the Nx releases
Once you have a copy of Nx.jar, make sure to include it in the same directory as the scripts.
