Device points deletion

This document import allows you to mark device points for deletion.

Each line in the document is a user agent identifier that is linked to a device point (or is a device point id directly). For each of those identifiers, the job will find its associated device point and delete it. Note that a device point may be linked to multiple user agent identifiers, all of which will be deleted once their device point is (including user agent identifiers that may not appear in your document).

This is only supported for datamarts using a user point system version of v202205 or later.

It only deletes the device point and its identifiers but not the associated user point.

How-to

  1. Use the bulk import endpoints to create a document import with the USER_DEVICE_POINTS_DELETION document type and APPLICATION_X_NDJSON mime type. Only ndjson data is supported.

  2. Create an execution with your commands formatted in ndjson. Each line represents a user agent.

Example

# Create the document import
curl -X POST \
  https://api.mediarithmics.com/v1/datamarts/<DATAMART_ID>/document_imports \
  -H 'Authorization: <YOUR_API_TOKEN>' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{
	"document_type": "USER_DEVICE_POINT_DELETION",
	"mime_type": "APPLICATION_X_NDJSON",
	"encoding": "utf-8",
	"name": "<YOUR_DOCUMENT_IMPORT_NAME>"
}'
# Create the execution
curl -X POST \
  https://api.mediarithmics.com/v1/datamarts/<DATAMART_ID>/document_imports/<DOCUMENT_IMPORT_ID>/executions \
  -H 'Authorization: <API_TOKEN>' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/x-ndjson' \
  -d '
    { "type": "USER_AGENT", "user_agent_id": "vec:89998434" }
    { "type": "USER_AGENT", "user_agent_id": "udp:987654" }
  '

Please note that the uploaded data is in ndjson and not json. That means the different deletions are not separated by commas, but by a line separator.

A list of possible user_agent_id values can be found at user_agent_id

If you want to pass device point ids directly ("udp:987654") you must do so using the USER_AGENT type.
