Overview

Use this endpoint to delete an insight that was previously generated for a specific AOI. It is essential to provide the AOI ID and Insight ID in the URL path, along with the associated project ID as a query parameter. A valid authorization token is mandatory. This operation permanently removes the selected insight, so it should be executed with caution. On successful deletion, a 200 OK response is returned. Invalid inputs or unauthorized attempts will trigger appropriate error messages.

How to use the endpoint

  1. Construct your Request:
    Ensure you have the required values:
    • The aoi_id (Area of Interest ID)
    • The insight_id (Insight ID to be deleted)
    • The project_id as a query parameter. Also, attach the authorization token in the header.
  2. Send the Request:
    After adding json body and path parameters make a DELETE request to https://api.pixxel.space/v0/aoi/{aoi_id}/insights/{insight_id}. Ensure the Authorization header is set properly.
  3. Examine the Response:
    If the deletion is successful, you’ll receive a 200 OK status with no content. If there’s an issue (e.g., invalid ID or insufficient permissions), you’ll get a 400 or 403 response with a structured error message explaining the problem.
