====== Credo Administration ======

===== Deleting/purging items from Credo =====

**important!** Deleting/purging items from Credo removes them from Fedora and the Solr search engine. It does not remove the original files from the server.

To delete/purge items from Credo, add a file to the /fedora/upload/purge folder with item PID you want to 
purge and **no file extension**. Like ingest, the purge folder processes every hour but will only purge 30 items per hour. 

 


===== Updating advanced search collection autocomplete =====

The advanced search collection autocomplete is populated by the OAI-PMH set list, which should have a list of all the collections in Credo. For a variety of unfortunate reasons not worth going into here, the autocomplete can't pull directly from the OAI-PMH endpoint. As a result, you need to download that file following the instructions on the [[new_collections#add_collection_information_to_the_oai-pmh_endpoint|adding collections]] page, then upload to Credo in /var/www/html/data, renaming it to oai.xml.

This should automatically update the dropdown.
