    Delete Configuration Item (CI)



    To delete a CI use the following URL format:

    http://<servername>:<portnumber>/api/change/cmdb/ci/CI Type:CI Name/delete/


    Assuming you deleting a requester CI in the local server with port number 8080, the URL should be given as:

    http://localhost:8080/api/cmdb/ci/Requester:Mukul/delete/


    Keypoints:

    1. The operation name "delete"  should be sent as a "POST attribute" with key "OPERATION_NAME".

    2. The technician key should be sent as a "POST attribute" with key "TECHNICIAN_KEY".


    Note:  

    • It is mandatory to give colon between CI Type and CI Name, so as to delete the CI uniquely.

    • Parameter Result Format - Optional. specifies the return format ( XML or JSON )

    • If no result format specified then API will return output in JSON format.

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    <API version="1.0">
        <response>
                <result>
                    <statuscode>200</statuscode>
                    <status>Success</status>
                    <message>1 records removed successfully.</message>
                    <created-date>Mar 22, 2013 10:58 AM</created-date>
                 </result>
       </response>
    </API>
