Remove-SPOContainer
Sends a Container to the Recycle Bin.
Syntax
Remove-SPOContainer
[-Identity <ContainerId>]
[<CommonParameters>]Description
The Remove-SPOContainer cmdlet deletes a File Storage Container and puts it in the Recycle Bin. A Container that is deleted will no longer be retrieved by the Get-SPOContainer cmdlet.
When admins delete a Container, it is moved into the Recycle Bin. A deleted Container can be restored from the Recycle Bin within 93 days. If a Container is deleted from the Recycle Bin, or it exceeds the 93-day retention period, it is permanently deleted. Deleting a Container deletes everything within it, including all documents and files. You can view all deleted Containers in the Recycle Bin with the Get-SPODeletedContainer cmdlet.
You must be at least a SharePoint Online administrator to run the cmdlet.
