delete a customer in jira service desk cloud

Jason Sheldon

Hi

 

I created a customer using REST API 

POST /rest/servicedeskapi/customer

 

I now want to delete the customer (I am testing my methods)

 

I cannot see it under people or customers in my service desk but I get this error whenI use same email etc

This request is invalid. Check that the request contains all the required parameters and that the parameters are valid. (email : An account already exists for this email)

 

How do I delete customers? Preferably via API but if not from backend login?

 

Thanks

Hi Jason, 

Thank you for reaching out to Atlassian Community!

Just to make sure that we are on the same page, you are using the endpoint below, is that correct?

DELETE /rest/servicedeskapi/servicedesk/{serviceDeskId}/customer

You mentioned that the customer is not showing on the project, can you please go to Administration > Jira Service Desk and check if the customer account is there?
On this screen, you can also delete the customer account.

Regards,
Angélica
