RestoreResource Method

Restores a resource from the trash.

Syntax

box.restoreResource(resourceId, parentId, newName, [callback])

Callback

The 'callback' parameter specifies a function which will be called when the operation completes (or an error is encountered). If the 'callback' parameter is not specified, then the method will block and will not return until the operation completes (or an error is encountered).

The callback for this method is defined as:

function(err){ }

'err' is the error that occurred. If there was no error, then 'err' is 'null'.

'err' has 2 properties which hold detailed information:

err.code
err.message

Remarks

This method restores the resource specified by ResourceId from the trash.

Box will always ignore ParentId and/or NewName in favor of restoring a trashed resource to its original location with its original name if possible. The ParentId and NewName parameters are only considered if one or both of the following are true:

• The original parent folder resource no longer exists (in which case ParentId will be used instead, if not empty).
• The original resource name is already in use in the original (or new) parent folder (in which case NewName will be used instead, if not empty).
