API delete failed only not working?

I wanted to know, why does the following call delete everything:
Code: Select all
api?mode=history&name=delete&value=all&failed_only=1&del_files=1
I thought it would only delete failed items?

The correct API-call is:
Code: Select all
api?mode=history&name=delete&value=failed&del_files=1
Yes, it makes no sense

Thanks. I also have executed this API command and it does not remove the files - it only removes the item from history.
Code: Select all
action = "api?mode=history&name=delete&value=%s&del_files=1"
http://%s/sabnzbd/%s&ma_username=%s&ma_password=%s&apikey=%s" % (SAB_IP, action % id, SAB_USER, SAB_PASS, SAB_APIKEY)
Which is the same as calling it without "del_files=1"
Would someone be willing to test this on their local system?

It does work when I test it.
BTW: the ma_password and ma_username parameters are not needed when you already supply the apikey.

Thanks! I just logged onto IRC to try and hunt someone down.
I'll remove the ma_pass/user and try again.

It's not that those parameter prevent the correct working, they're just not needed.
I haven't been able to reproduce your problem.
You're sure the job-id is correct? The API call will return "ok" even for a non-existing job.
