Delete a single configuration element instance

delete

/rest/{version}/configuration/configElements

Deletes the specified configuration element instance in the system configuration. The client making the DELETE request must already possess the configuration lock or the request fails. For configuration element types that are singletons, which have no key attributes, the only query parameter included in the URI is elementType. For element types that can have multiple instances, the query string must include "&name=value" for each key attribute, where name is a key attribute name and value is the associated value. The order of the key attributes in the query string does not matter. The key attributes for an element type are identified in the metadata (/configuration/elementTypes/metadata).

Request

Path Parameters

• version(required):
  REST API version string.
  Available values: v1.2

Query Parameters

• elementType(required):
  Indicates the configuration element type being deleted.
• name=value:
  Specifies the name and value for one key attribute of the elementType. For elementTypes having multiple key attributes, each one must be represented by "&name=value" in the query string. This query parameter is omitted entirely for singleton element types, which by definition have no key attributes.

Header Parameters

• Authorization(required):
  The value in the Authorization header must be the string "Bearer {access token}", where {access token} is a valid, unexpired token received in response to a prior /rest/{version}/auth/token request.

This request requires the client credentials to have administrator privileges.

404 Response

Unsupported versionId in URI, or requested element type not supported, or element instance specified by key attribute(s) not found.

423 Response

The request requires the configuration lock and failed because the client does not currently own the lock.
