Deleted Records

The retrieval of deactivated records (i.e., record status = wcRecordStatus:DELETED) is important, ensuring that your local copy is fresh with the right status for each World-Check record. Deactivated or soft-deleted records can only be retrieved by specifying a lookback period. This is achieved using the recordStatus filter.

A sample query requesting for all deactivated records after the given timestamp.
