How to call a different removeUrl for each file on remove?

[Adam]

Hello, 

The endpoints that I'm using to save & remove files with the uploader is implemented as a restful service. The endpoints look something like this: 

POST : api/resource/{resourceId}/attachments 

DELETE api/resource/{resourceId}/attachments/{attachmentId}

The post works no problem. I'm having trouble with the DELETE however because I need to the URL called for each file to include the id of the attachment being deleted.

My config looks like this at the moment:

<input name="files" type="file" kendo-upload k-files="wiz.attachments" k-async="{withCredentials : false,saveUrl : attachmentUrl, removeUrl : attachmentUrl, removeVerb : "DELETE", autoUpload : true}" k-select="onSelect" k-multiple="true"/>

Is it possible for me to change the removeUrl based on the file selected? 

 

Thanks for your help

for better or worse, what I did for this was to create a function to attach to the remove event, then override the removeUrl when that was called : 

 

onRemove = function(e)  {
e.sender.options.async.removeUrl = "api/resource/{resourceId}/attachments/" + e.files[0].id;
};

 

Works well, but perhaps there is a cleaner way

Hello Adam,

This is the recommended way to achieve the task. You could also use the select event handler if needed.
