DELETE

Delete source events

Deletes all events, or a specific set of events, tied to a source. By default, making a DELETE request to this endpoint deletes all events associated with a source. To delete a specific event, or a range of events, you can use the start_id and end_id parameters. These IDs can be retrieved by using the GET /sources/{id}/event_summaries endpoint, and are tied to the timestamp at which the event was emitted — e.g. 1589486981597-0. They are therefore naturally ordered by time.

Endpoint

Parameters

string
The event ID from which you’d like to start deleting events.If start_id is passed without end_id, the request will delete all events starting with and including this event ID. For example, if your source has 3 events:
  • 1589486981597-0
  • 1589486981598-0
  • 1589486981599-0
and you issue a DELETE request like so:
The request will delete the last two events.

string
The event ID from which you’d like to end the range of deletion.If end_id is passed without start_id, the request will delete all events up to and including this event ID. For example, if your source has 3 events:
  • 1589486981597-0
  • 1589486981598-0
  • 1589486981599-0
and you issue a DELETE request like so:
The request will delete the first two events.
