I want to delete a email folder (empty) with a destructive package but I can't make this work.

I made a .zip with my 2 files :

package.xml

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Package xmlns="http://soap.sforce.com/2006/04/metadata">
    <version>44.0</version>
</Package>

destructiveChangePost.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Package xmlns="http://soap.sforce.com/2006/04/metadata">
    <types>
        <name>Folder</name>
        <members>my_email_folder</members>       
    </types>

</Package>

When I try to deploy with Workbench, the folder isn't deleted :

Is it possible to do it in that way?

  • You are trying to delete file-folder and not email template folder. Can you try this instead? <name>EmailTemplate</name> Commented Jan 21, 2019 at 14:45

Email Template folder is not Folder Object but just EmailTemplate

Changing destructive.xml file include email template folder makes it delete it.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Package xmlns="http://soap.sforce.com/2006/04/metadata">
    <types>
        <name>Folder</name>
        <members>EmailTemplate</members>       
    </types>

</Package>
