Delete User

Use this API to permenantly delete a user from OneLogin.

Be Careful

This operation can not be undone. The user will be deleted and will no longer be able to log in.



Resource URL

https://<subdomain>/api/2/users/:id

Header Parameter

Authorization

required

string

Set to bearer:<access_token>.

Set <access_token> to the access token you generated using the Generate Token API.

The access token must have been generated using an API credential pair created using the scope required to call this API. This API can be called using any one of the following scopes: Manage users or Manage All.

Resource Parameter

id

required

integer

 Set to the id of the user that you want to delete. If you don’t know the user’s id, use the List Users API call to return all users and their id values.

Sample Response

  • 204 No Content
  • 401 Unauthorized
  • 404 Not Found
On success, no content is returned in the response body.

Typically, this error means that your access token value is invalid.
