Public/Lists/Remove-HuduList.ps1

<#
.SYNOPSIS
    Removes a list from the connected Hudu instance.
 
.DESCRIPTION
    Deletes the list with the given ID via the connected HuduClient (see Connect-Hudu).
    Returns $null instead of throwing when the ID doesn't exist, since Hudu responds with an
    HTTP 404 in that case. Supports -WhatIf/-Confirm, with a 'High' confirm impact since deletion
    is irreversible.
 
.PARAMETER Id
    ID of the list to delete. Accepts pipeline input by property name.
 
.EXAMPLE
    Remove-HuduList -Id 7
 
    Deletes the list with ID 7, after confirmation.
 
.EXAMPLE
    Get-HuduList -Name 'Old Locations' | Remove-HuduList -Confirm:$false
 
    Deletes the 'Old Locations' list without prompting.
 
.OUTPUTS
    None
