ProductPropertiesDelete Endpoint

Overview

Nearly every single store needs product properties.  This endpoint allows you to delete any unnecessary product properties from your store.

Requirements

The following pre-requisites will be necessary to accomplish the goals of this article:

• General understanding of REST and API’s
• Understanding of C# and/or JavaScript
• Visual Studio 2012 or newer

Getting Started

You should already have a project open and ready to accept code to allow you to use this REST API endpoint.  You should also have one or more product properties created so that you can successfully delete one.

ProductPropertiesDelete

This REST API endpoint allows you to delete a product property from your store. 

Example URL

This is what the REST endpoint will look like if you are calling it using JavaScript.  See our REST API URL documentation for more information.

http://example.com/DesktopModules/Hotcakes/API/rest/v1/productproperties/[ID]

ID is the product property ID as described in the parameters below.

HTTP Method

DELETE

Parameters

Parameter	Description
id	This is the unique ID of the product property that you wish to delete

Returns

If successful, this endpoint will return True in the ApiResponse.Content object.  Otherwise, you should have one or more errors returned.  If you receive a False response with no error, either the product property ID doesn't exist, or the REST call was improperly formatted.

string url = "http://example.com";
string key = "YOUR-API-KEY";

Api proxy = new Api(url, key);

// specify the product property to delete
var propertyId = 6;

// call the API to delete the product property
ApiResponse<bool> response = proxy.ProductPropertiesDelete(propertyId);

// your domain name
var url = "http://example.com"; 
// the path where the API is
var apiPath = "/DesktopModules/Hotcakes/API/rest/v1/";  
// endpoint as shown in the documentation
var endPoint = "productproperties";  
// get this from the store admin
var apiKey = "YOUR-API-KEY";

$(document).ready(function() {

    // specify the product property to delete
    var propertyId = 7;

    // call the API to delete the product property
    $.ajax({
        dataType: "json",
        url: url + apiPath + endPoint + "/" + propertyId + "?key=" + apiKey,
        type: 'DELETE',
        success: function (data) {
            // do something
        },
        error: function (jqXHR, textStatus) {
