Delete Point of View

Deletes the data associated with a point of view from the calculation cube.

This is an asynchronous call, so use the job status URI to determine whether the operation is complete.

Required Roles

Service Administrators

Note:

This REST API supports using an existing job as the source of parameter values. The job type must be Delete POV, created and saved in PCM Agent. Any parameters defined in the saved job can be overridden at runtime by providing values in the REST request payload.

REST Resource

POST /HyperionPlanning/rest/v3/applications/{AppName}/jobs/

Request

Note:

If substitution variables exist for parameters, you can use them instead of actual values in the REST API. See Using Substitution Variables in Enterprise Profitability and Cost Management REST APIs for more information.

Table 24-10 Request Parameters

Name	Description	Type	Required	Default
jobType	Delete POV	Payload	Yes	None
jobName	Name of the job Example: "Delete POV" The jobName parameter is required and must be provided, even if it’s just a placeholder value. If a saved job exists with the provided job name, the platform jobs Framework resolves it and populates all parameters from the saved job definition. If no saved job is found, it treats the value as a user-defined job name.	Payload	Yes	None
povDelimiter	Delimiter used in POV values. The delimiter must be enclosed in double quotation marks. Other than a comma, only these delimiters are supported: _ (under score) # (hash) ~ (tilde) % (percentage) ; (semicolon) : (colon) - (dash) Example: "povDelimiter":":" Note: When submitting multiple POVs for calculation, do not use a comma as the delimiter to separate POV members. Comma is reserved for separating POV groups as shown in this example: FY21:Jan:Actual:Working,FY21:Feb:Actual:Working,FY21:Mar:Actual:Working	Payload	Yes	:: (Double Colon)
povName	Name of the POV to delete Example: "povName":"FY21:Jan:Actual:Working"	Payload	Yes	None
