I’m not exactly sure what you are asking. What are you trying to delete? An entire portfolio, a specific transaction, or something else? Also, do you want to know how to do it using the RESTful API or simply by using Google Finance’s interface?

I’m using google finance for stock portfolios. I can’t figure out how to delete in the program. Please advise.

*** Update ***

I changed the code in the createAuthToken() method to split the “returnMessage” using a regular expression.

Old code:
returnMessage.split(“\n”)[2].split(“=”)[1]

New code:
returnMessage.split(/Auth=/)[1].trim()

I think we can all agree that this should make the code much more readable.
