Deleting a Device Group

Typical Scenario

If a device group is no longer needed on the IoT platform due to group changes, an NA can call this API to delete a specified device group.

API Function

This API is used by an NA to delete a specified device group based on group ID from the IoT platform.

API Prototype

Method	DELETE
URL	https://server:port/iocm/app/devgroup/v1.3.0/devGroups/{devGroupId}?accessAppId={accessAppId}
Transport Protocol	HTTPS

Request Parameters

Parameter	Mandatory or Optional	Type	Location	Description
app_key	Mandatory	String	header	Identifies an application that can be accessed on the IoT platform. The value of this parameter is allocated by the IoT platform when the application is created on the platform.
