How can I find orphaned files in the Vault?

Hi Angela, You are correct about the behavior of Files and Containers expect for one thing. Files that are related to ECOs, Documents, etc. do have a container which corresponds to the ID of the relationship item. So a File related to a Document will have it's container set to the ID of the Document File relationship. In terms of recommendations for cleaning up older conversion server files, there's no "correct" way to do this. It's entirely dependent on your specific needs. If the amount of conversion server files is not a problem, you could not worry about cleaning them up at all. However, if it does eventually become a problem, one solution could be to periodically run a method that checks the age of the file using the created_on property and removes it if it is older than some amount.
