Can we Delete uploaded files from dam

I need to delete uploaded files from DAM Asset programmatically. Can we delete particular file node from DAM?

Path:- /content/dam/nextgen/Ehub-POD/....

Inside Ehub-POD , I'm creating a folder and upload files. In jsp page I'll select particular file and need to delete the file from dam as well as from the jsp.

Another way to do it via CURL:

You can do a CURL DELETE request to the image path to remove it. Also, you can find all references to an image using CURL via following command:

http://localhost:4502/bin/wcm/references.json?path=/content/dam/nextgen/Ehub-POD/test-image.png

This will give you references of all the places where this image is used (except CSS or JS).

Let's Imagine we have the following image in dam:

/content/dam/nextgen/Ehub-POD/image1.jpg

To remove it use jcr Session:

session.removeItem("/content/dam/nextgen/Ehub-POD/image1.jpg")
if (session.hasPendingChanges()) {
    session.save();        
}

Image from dam will be removed, now you need to run query to find out where image was used and delete fileReference property:

Workspace workspace = session.getWorkspace();
QueryManager qm = workspace.getQueryManager();
Query query = qm.createQuery("/jcr:root/content/websitename/*[@fileReference='/content/dam/nextgen/Ehub-POD/image1.jpg']", Query.XPATH);
QueryResult queryResult = query.execute();
result = queryResult.getNodes();
while (result.hasNext()) {
    Node node = result.nextNode();
    node.getProperty("fileReference").remove();
}

or you can delete all info about image, received node store info about cropping, fileReference and etc:

while (result.hasNext()) {
    Node node = result.nextNode();
    node.remove();
}

and don't forget to save your repository changes

if (session.hasPendingChanges()) {
    session.save();        
}
