Path: Feature Flags API `DELETE /v1/organizations/{orgId}/projects/{projectId}/segments/{segmentId}` 409 segment_in_use when an environment's config of any flag references it. ## Authentication Requires one of the following: - `apiKey`, http, header `Authorization` - `oauth`, http, header `Authorization` - `sessionCookie`, apiKey, in cookie ## Path parameters - `DeleteSegment.path.orgId` (string, required) - format `uuid` - `DeleteSegment.path.projectId` (string, required) - format `uuid` - `DeleteSegment.path.segmentId` (string, required) - format `uuid` ## Header parameters - `DeleteSegment.header.If-Match` (string, optional) — The ETag as last read, or *. Without it the write isn't conditional; with a stale one it's 412. ## Code samples ### cURL ```curl curl --request DELETE \ --url https://flags-api.ezghcloud.com/v1/organizations/497f6eca-6276-4993-bfeb-53cbbbba6f08/projects/497f6eca-6276-4993-bfeb-53cbbbba6f08/segments/497f6eca-6276-4993-bfeb-53cbbbba6f08 \ --header 'Authorization: Bearer ' ``` ### TypeScript ```typescript const url = 'https://flags-api.ezghcloud.com/v1/organizations/497f6eca-6276-4993-bfeb-53cbbbba6f08/projects/497f6eca-6276-4993-bfeb-53cbbbba6f08/segments/497f6eca-6276-4993-bfeb-53cbbbba6f08'; const options = {method: 'DELETE', headers: {Authorization: 'Bearer '}}; fetch(url, options) .then(res => res.json()) .then(json => console.log(json)) .catch(err => console.error(err)); ``` ### Python ```python import requests url = "https://flags-api.ezghcloud.com/v1/organizations/497f6eca-6276-4993-bfeb-53cbbbba6f08/projects/497f6eca-6276-4993-bfeb-53cbbbba6f08/segments/497f6eca-6276-4993-bfeb-53cbbbba6f08" headers = {"Authorization": "Bearer "} response = requests.delete(url, headers=headers) print(response.text) ``` ## Responses ### 204 Deleted. ### 400 invalid_request (with issues), invalid_cursor, or the endpoint's own 400 codes. #### Example ```json { "error": { "code": "string", "issues": [ { "message": "string", "path": "string" } ], "message": "string", "quota": { "id": "string", "inFlight": 0, "kind": "allocation", "limit": 0, "periodStart": "2019-08-24T14:15:22Z", "region": "string", "resetsAt": "2019-08-24T14:15:22Z", "scope": "organization", "scopeResourceName": "string", "used": 0, "window": "string" } } } ``` - `DeleteSegment.response.400.error` (object, required) - `DeleteSegment.response.400.error.code` (string, required) - maxLength 64; pattern `^[a-z][a-z0-9_]*$` - `DeleteSegment.response.400.error.message` (string, required) - maxLength 1024 - `DeleteSegment.response.400.error.issues` (array, optional) — invalid_request: one entry per problem, at a dotted path. - `DeleteSegment.response.400.error.issues.message` (string, required) - `DeleteSegment.response.400.error.issues.path` (string, required) - `DeleteSegment.response.400.error.quota` (object, optional) — quota_exceeded: the quota that refused the request.
