Return type

...

deleteDataObject

variable: primitive type, array or struct

No

Normally, http delete requests do not need a body. However, we were signaled that some APIs do require some data inside the body, so we adapted to this situation by adding this optional parameter. It contains the data to be added to the body.

Return Type

String

Variable return type depends on the left hand side operator type.

Example

The following example calls an HTTP DELETE using the JIRA REST API that results in deleting the user with the "guest1"  username from username from the "jira-guests" group.

Code Block
string baseUrl = getJIRABaseUrl();
string requestUrl = baseUrl + "/rest/api/2/group/user";

HttpRequest request;
HttpHeader authHeader = httpBasicAuthHeader("admin", "admin");
request.headers += authHeader;
request.parameters += httpCreateParameter("groupname", "jira-guests");
request.parameters += httpCreateParameter("username", "guest1");

httpDelete(requestUrl, request);
Note

The request parameter should have the HttpRequest type described here. The HttpProxy type is described here.
