## Notes

- **Behavior:** This operation deletes the specified root folder and all its subfolders and files.
- **Permissions:** Only users with admin privileges can perform this operation.
- **Limitations:** The action is irreversible. Ensure you have backups if necessary.
- **Files in use:** If a file is in use while this API runs, the file goes into offline mode. The file and the folders in its hierarchy are not deleted, and you must manually delete the file along with the relevant folders and subfolders from the Content Center.
