Hi there,

Is it possible to remove (delete) particular personal site (SharePoint On Premise) by using CSOM?

Thanks

Answer 1

As far as I know, if you want to delete top-level site, you need to delete site collection, and SharePoint 2013 on premise CSOM can't provide a method to achieve it.MySite is a top-level site,so you could not delete it with CSOM.

Answer 2

Hi AmosWu,

I use the following code to delete my site:

SPWebApplication sPWebApplication = SPWebApplication.Lookup(new Uri(uriAddress));
SPFieldUrlValue _sp_Personal_Site_Location = new SPFieldUrlValue(properties.ListItem["sp_Personal_Site_Location"].ToString().Trim());

sPWebApplication.Sites.Delete(_sp_Personal_Site_Location.Description);
sPWebApplication.Update();

thanks
