📘

The request object must include a single property: items_to_update (a list of Item IDs to delete, passed as numbers).

These items can belong to different campaigns under your account.

🚧

Guidelines

  1. To bulk delete items use the DELETE verb.
  2. Limit each request to a maximum of 200 items.
  3. By default, if the delete operation fails for 1 item, then no items will be deleted. To override this behavior, pass is_atomic=false.
  4. Bulk delete applies to regular items and video items.
  5. Deleted items have a status of STOPPED. Any attempt to reference that Item ID will return 404 Not Found.

🚧

The network account

You can use a network account to delete items across the network:
DELETE backstage/api/1.0/{network-account}/items/bulk

For more information about the network account see: Network Accounts.
