Delete an automation using OpenAPI

Delete an automation from Automation Hub by calling the DELETE /api/v1/openapi/automations/{id} endpoint.

前提条件

• You have an active Automation Hub API token. For instructions, see Generate your Token from Automation Hub.
• You know the numeric ID of the automation you want to delete. You can retrieve it from the automation's URL in Automation Hub or via a GET /api/v1/openapi/automations call.
• You have the System Admin or Program Manager role.

Delete an automation

1. Construct the request URL using the automation ID:

   DELETE https://{baseUrl}/api/v1/openapi/automations/{id}
   

2. Include the required authentication header:

   ヘッダー	値 (Value)
   x-ah-openapi-app-key	Your Automation Hub API token
   x-ah-openapi-auth	openapi
   Content-Type	application/json

3. Optionally include a comment in the request body:

   {
     "comment": "Removing duplicate entry."
   }
   

4. Send the request.

結果

A successful deletion returns HTTP 200. The automation is permanently removed from the tenant and no longer appears in Automation Hub.

エラー コード

コード	意味
400	Bad request — the request body is malformed or a required field is invalid.
404	Not found — no automation with the specified ID exists in the tenant.

Example: delete multiple automations using a script

Use the following PowerShell script to delete a list of automations by ID:

$baseUrl  = "https://<your-tenant>.automation-hub.uipath.com"
$appKey   = "<your-api-token>"
$ids      = @(1001, 1002, 1003)
$comment  = "Bulk cleanup"

foreach ($id in $ids) {
    $response = Invoke-RestMethod `
        -Method Delete `
        -Uri "$baseUrl/api/v1/openapi/automations/$id" `
        -Headers @{
            "x-ah-openapi-app-key" = $appKey
            "x-ah-openapi-auth"    = "openapi"
            "Content-Type"         = "application/json"
        } `
        -Body (ConvertTo-Json @{ comment = $comment })
    Write-Host "Deleted $id — Status: $($response.StatusCode)"
}
