Question

I’m trying to write a SOQL query to retrieve some Salesforce Content records and am having a bit of difficulty figuring out my next step. I want to exclude all versions of a document if a custom field of any version of that document has a value (is not null). Here’s slimmed down version of what I am trying to do:

Select  Id, Title
From    ContentVersion
Where   ContentDocumentId Not In
        (
           Select ContentDocumentId,
           From   ContentVersion
           Where  Custom_Field__c != null
        )

So I know that you can’t write a subquery that targets the same object as its outer query, so obviously what I’ve specified above won’t work. Any suggestions on what will work?

Thank you.

Can You try something like this:

Select C.Id from ContentDocument C where 
    ID not in ( Select ContentDocumentId
        From   ContentVersion
        where Custom_Field__c != null)
