Examples

Delete an item from Cosmos

using(ResponseMessage response = await this.container.DeleteItemStreamAsync("itemId", new PartitionKey("itemPartitionKey")))
{
    if (!response.IsSuccessStatusCode)
    {
        //Handle and log exception
        return;
    }
}

Remarks

For delete operations, the Content will be null. Item content is not expected in the response.

The Stream operation only throws on client side exceptions. This is to increase performance and prevent the overhead of throwing exceptions. Check the HTTP status code on the response to check if the operation failed.
