Delete a batch of documents

POST
/organizations/{organization}/indexes/{index}/objects:delete
Code sample: Shell / cURL
curl --request POST \
--url https://api.grepvine.ai/v1/organizations/example/indexes/example/objects:delete \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--header 'Idempotency-Key: example' \
--cookie __Host-grepvine-session=<__Host-grepvine-session> \
--data '{ "objects": [ { "key": "example", "if_match": "example" } ] }'

Deletes up to 2,048 documents. Each document is deleted on its own: a document that does not exist or whose precondition fails is not deleted, the others are, and the result of each document says which happened. Retrying with the same Idempotency-Key returns the same results.

organization
required

An account or organization name. Accounts and organizations share one namespace. A name keeps the case it was created with, and any spelling that differs only in case refers to it; no other account or organization can take such a spelling.

string
/^[A-Za-z][A-Za-z0-9-]{2,62}$/
index
required

An index name, unique in its organization. A name keeps the case it was created with, and any spelling that differs only in case refers to it; no other index in the organization can take such a spelling.

string
/^[A-Za-z][A-Za-z0-9-]{0,62}$/
Idempotency-Key
required
string
>= 16 characters <= 128 characters
X-Csrf-Token
string
>= 16 characters <= 256 characters

Required for a state change that uses cookie authentication.

The request failed. A 429 carries Retry-After; the index is busy absorbing recent writes or is out of request capacity, and clients must slow down and retry after the interval. A 403 with code organization_suspended refuses every operation on a suspended organization’s members, indexes, documents and searches; reading the organization itself still answers and reports suspended, and the client should contact support.

X-Request-Id

The request identifier used for support and audit correlation.

Retry-After
integer

Seconds to wait before retrying. Sent with every 429 so a client slows down instead of failing.
