    Hi Amit,

    What are the properties you would like to see in the recycle bin? Custom properties are not supported by recycle bin. There is a new feature in ICN 3.0.9 IFix 1 to display the "Recycled By" property.

    Regards,

    Angie

    That problem isn't ICNs fault. The - very reasonable - desire to see what were the properties of the file that was marked for deletion is ery difficult to achieve. The info is in a blob in the Recovery Item and it is still in the docversions table, because the document was never removed from there.

    So either you have to unpack the blob per API (it is essentially a serialized Java Object) or you get straight to the database by object id and pick our attributes.

    All options are not very attractive.

    The recovery bin is misdesigned in my opinion. When ou brows a bin you have no real idea what you are looking at.
