# Delete Doc Lib
Deletes a document library from SharePoint by processing rows from an Excel file. When targeting by matter code, also removes the corresponding matter list entries.
Filename pattern: filename must contain deletedoclib (case-insensitive).
Example: 20240115 deletedoclib cleanup.xlsx

| MatterCode | Conditional | Matter code used to resolve the document library from the matter list. Required when Url is not provided. |

# Behavior
Deletes the resolved document library. When Permanent is false (default), the library is sent to the recycle bin; when true, it is permanently deleted. When targeting by MatterCode, the handler deletes the first document library URL registered for that matter and also removes the matter record from the My Matters list and the Matter list.
