new Cloud()
Contains functions for calling and declaring cloud functions.
Some functions are only available from Cloud Code.
Methods
(static) afterDelete(arg1, func)
Registers an after delete function.
Available in Cloud Code only.
If you want to use afterDelete for a predefined class in the Parse JavaScript SDK (e.g. Parse.User), you should pass the class itself and not the String for arg1.

// code here
})
Parse.Cloud.afterDelete(Parse.User, (request) => {
// code here
})
Parameters:
Name | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
arg1 |
string
|
Parse.Object
|
The Parse.Object subclass to register the after delete function for. This can instead be a String that is the className of the subclass. |
func |
function
|
The function to run after a delete. This function should take just one parameter, Parse.Cloud.TriggerRequest. |
(static) afterSave(arg1, func)
Registers an after save function.
Available in Cloud Code only.
If you want to use afterSave for a predefined class in the Parse JavaScript SDK (e.g. Parse.User), you should pass the class itself and not the String for arg1.
Parse.Cloud.afterSave('MyCustomClass', function(request) {
// code here
