Deleting a tenant
Warning
Deleting a tenant is not a reversible operation and results in the following:
All sub-tenants are deleted.
All user accounts within this tenant and all its sub-tenants are deleted.
All services enabled within this tenant and all its sub-tenants stop operating.
All service-related data (e.g., backups, synced files) of this tenant and all its sub-tenants are deleted.
Authenticate to the cloud platform via the Python shell.
The following variables should be available now:
>>> base_url # the base URL of the API 'https://eu2-cloud.acronis.com/api/2' >>> auth # the 'Authorization' header value with the access token {'Authorization': 'Bearer eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJSUzI1NiIsImtpZCI6ImMwMD...'} >>> tenant_id # the UUID of the tenant to which the token provides access 'ede9f834-70b3-476c-83d9-736f9f8c7dae'
Assign either of the following values to the
tenant_id
variable – the UUID of a sub-tenant created via the API or a sub-tenant found by its name:>>> tenant_id = created_tenant_id >>> tenant_id '0fcd4a69-8a40-4de8-b711-d9c83dc000f7'
Disable the tenant as described in steps 3-7 of “Disabling a tenant”.
Obtain the number of the latest tenant revision. You will have to specify this number in a subsequent request to the tenant. This is required to manage concurrent tenant modifications.
Fetch the tenant information as described in steps 3-5 of “Fetching information about an individual tenant”. As the result, you should have a
tenant
variable with the tenant object.Define a variable named
tenant_version
, and then assign the value of theversion
key from the tenant object to this variable:>>> tenant_version = tenant['version'] >>> tenant_version 3
Send a DELETE request to the
/tenants/{tenant_id}
endpoint. The endpoint URL must contain aversion
query parameter set to the number of the latest tenant revision:>>> params = {'version': tenant_version} >>> response = requests.delete(f'{base_url}/tenants/{tenant_id}', headers=auth, params=params)
Check the status code of the response:
>>> response.status_code 204
Status code 204 means that the platform has deleted the tenant.
A different status code means that an error has occurred. For the details, refer to “Status and error codes”.
