what casper can do

  • Advanced Search Archive.org ItemsSearch Archive.org metadata with exact Advanced Search page semantics. Use Search Archive.org Items instead when cursor-based deep paging is needed.
  • Check Identifier AvailabilityCheck whether an Archive.org item identifier is available before attempting to create an item.
  • Check Archive.org Upload LimitCheck whether Archive.org's ingest queue is likely to accept an upload or delete, using only the connection's LOW Authorization header.
  • Copy Item FileCopy one Archive.org file server-side to a named path in an existing destination item. This creates the destination file when absent and overwrites it when present while preserving the prior destination under history/files. The source remains unchanged. This action never queues derivation; use DERIVE_ITEM for that separate irreversible effect. Catalog visibility may lag after IA-S3 accepts the copy.
  • Delete Item FileSubmit asynchronous deletion of one named file from an Archive.org item through IA-S3. An accepted response does not verify file absence; read item metadata later to verify it. This action cannot delete an item/bucket. Cascade deletion is disabled by default and must be explicitly enabled.
  • Delete My Archive.org ReviewPermanently delete the connected Archive.org user's public review from one item. Archive.org queues the deletion and rejects the request if no such review exists.
