Immich

Interact with Immich, a self-hosted photo and video management solution

Overview

This node operation deletes an asset from the Immich photo and video management system by specifying the asset's unique ID. It is useful for managing and cleaning up media libraries by removing unwanted or obsolete assets.

Use Case Examples

  1. Deleting a photo or video asset by its ID to free up storage space.
  2. Removing an incorrectly uploaded asset from the media library.

Properties

Name Meaning
Asset ID The unique identifier of the asset to be deleted.
Request Options Additional settings for the HTTP request such as batching, SSL certificate validation, proxy configuration, and timeout duration.

Output

JSON

  • success - Indicates whether the asset deletion was successful.
  • message - Additional information or error message related to the deletion operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for authenticating with the Immich API.

Troubleshooting

  • Ensure the Asset ID is correct and exists in the system; otherwise, the deletion will fail.
  • If SSL certificate validation is enabled and the server uses a self-signed or invalid certificate, the request may be blocked unless 'Ignore SSL Issues' is enabled.
  • Proxy settings must be correctly configured if used; incorrect proxy details can cause request failures.
  • Timeout should be set appropriately to avoid premature request termination, especially on slow networks or large payloads.
