Delete contacts from a listMenu

Delete contacts from a list

POST/v1/lists/{id}/contacts/delete

Requires an API key with the lists:write scope. About keys and scopes

Works with integration and partner keys, not agent keys.

Safe to retry: a repeat sets the same values again. About idempotency

Takes up to 500 contacts out of a list in one batch, named by exactly one of contactIds, externalIds or emails: a POST, since some clients and proxies drop the body of a DELETE. The contacts themselves are kept. Contacts that were not members are ignored; the response reports how many were actually taken out, and lists in notFound the identifiers that name no contact in this workspace. Agent keys are refused with 403 AGENT_KEY_REFUSED.

Path parameters

idstringrequired

The list's id.

uuid

Header parameters

Kirora-Workspacestringoptional

Partner keys only: the child workspace to act in, by the external id the partner gave it. Without it, a partner key acts in its own workspace. Any other key that sends it is refused with 403, and an unknown workspace is 404.

pattern ^[A-Za-z0-9._:-]{1,128}$

Idempotency-Keystringoptional

Makes a retry safe: a repeat with the same key and body within 24 hours gets the first response again, with Idempotency-Replay: true. The same key with another request is 409 IDEMPOTENCY_KEY_REUSED; while the first is still running, 409 IDEMPOTENCY_KEY_IN_USE; after an unsafe first request failed or never returned, 409 IDEMPOTENCY_KEY_OUTCOME_UNKNOWN. Use a new key, such as a UUID, for each new request.

200 OKHow many contacts were taken out, and the identifiers that matched none.
409 ConflictThe request conflicts with current state — a duplicate unique value, or a resource whose status does not allow this operation.
413 Payload Too LargeThe body is larger than this operation accepts (PAYLOAD_TOO_LARGE).
415 Unsupported Media TypeThe body is not JSON, or not the upload the operation takes (UNSUPPORTED_MEDIA_TYPE).

deletedCountintegerrequired

Contacts taken out of the list.

min 0

notFoundstring[]required
