REST API for Session Border Controller, Enterprise Session Border Controller, and Subscriber-Aware Load Balancer, Release 9.3.0

Delete a single configuration element instance

delete

https://{managementIp}/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): string

REST API version string.
Available values: v1.2

Query Parameters

elementType(required): string

Indicates the configuration element type being deleted.
name=value: string

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.

There's no request body for this operation.

Response

Supported Media Types

application/xml

204 Response

Successful deletion of the requested instance. There is no response body for a successful delete.

400 Response

The request is malformed in some way or is missing required information and therefore cannot be processed.

If another client or user currently owns the configuration lock, the error message is "Resource locked by another user". If no client or user owns the configuration lock, the error message is "User does not have the lock".
