v1Operation ID v1_public_group_destroy

Deletes a permission group for good. A group that still has members cannot be deleted; move them to another group first.

Permission

Needs the Manage Settings permission. The team's plan must include advanced permission management.

Business rules

  • The group must have no members.

Path parameters

  • team_slugstringrequired

    Your team slug, shown as Team ID next to your API key in Profile.

    • Example your-team
  • hash_idstringrequired

    The permission group's id: a hash id from an earlier answer. Only hash ids work here; anything else answers 404 page_not_found.

    • Example aaNZmyj0mvmWLU

Request body

This operation takes no request body.

Response

200Successful response.

Errors

  • 401The API key is missing or wrong (unauthenticated).

    When
    The API key is missing or wrong.
    Fix
    Send your personal API key as Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY.
  • 403You are not allowed to do this. api_access_not_in_plan: your team's plan doesn't include API access (Pro and above, with an active subscription or trial), so every request answers this until the team upgrades. When your role lacks the permission the operation needs, the body is only {"message": "Insufficient Permission"}. Other refusals use the error envelope, with unauthorized or user_is_not_authorized.

    When
    Your permission group lacks Manage Settings. This 403 has a short body, {"message": "Insufficient Permission"}, without success or error.
    Fix
    Ask the team owner to give your permission group Manage Settings.
  • 404Not found. page_not_found: the team slug is unknown, you are not a member of the team, or an id in the path is not one of this team's. code: null, with a message that starts "No query results for": there is no record with that id.

    When
    No permission group with that id on this team (error.code is null and error.message starts "No query results"), the id is not one of this team's hash ids, or you are not a member of the team (both page_not_found).
    Fix
    Use an id from the list operation and check the team slug.
  • 422The request was refused and changed nothing: validation_failed lists what to fix in error.fields, other codes name a business rule. When the team's plan does not include the feature, the body is only {"message": "This feature is not available to your team's plan."}.

    When
    The team's plan doesn't include advanced permission management. The body is short: {"message": "This feature is not available to your team's plan."}.
    Fix
    Upgrade the plan.
    When
    The group still has members (deleting_role_with_active_users_prohibited).
    Fix
    Move its members to another group with Move a member to a permission group.
