Legacy | Delete file

Command: media
Subcommand: delete
Supported Platforms: Native (legacy), UFT (legacy), Selenium, Appium

All commands must be executed using the same framework. Sharing the execution ID between different frameworks is not possible. This means that if you work with a Selenium/Appium driver, you need to call the commands using the Selenium/Appium driver (or, in the case of Reporting commands, through the Reporting SDK that works with the driver) and not as part of a UFT test or another framework.
Supported OS: Android, iOS
