Files.GetAssetsForParent API - Appears to be returning deleted images

I have a folder which shows four images in the application.  However, when I use the above API call, it returns eight results.  The filenames are the same, however, the ids are unique.

Hi Mark,

Welcome to the forum!

A quick test of Files.GetAssetsForParent() here only resulted in assets from the recycle bin being returned if the recycle bin containerid itself was provide as an argument. Perhaps you could expand a little on your testing?

Best Regards,
Steve

Re: Files.GetAssetsForParent API - Appears to be returning deleted images

These are the steps I take:

#1 Call Folders.GetTopLevelFolders
#2 Find the single folder that I want
#3 Call Folders.GetContainersForParent
#4 This returns a collection of folders
#5 For each folder, call Files.GetAssetsForParent

Is this enough?  I didn't want to give complete specifics on an open forum, but I would be happy to email these through to you if that is possible?

I have found the issue - we had two identically named folders with the sames images in each folder, hence the duplication.
