GET Read a monitor deletion job
/api/v1/monitor-deletions/{job_id}
Only the workspace owner may permanently delete a monitor. First request a five-minute configuration-bound preview, then send preview_id, confirm_deletion: true and an Idempotency-Key. Unconfirmed legacy archive requests are rejected. The monitor is immediately blocked; a durable job removes all its database, archive and cache data and cleans linked displays. Read the job until complete; paused jobs show a technical error and retry automatically. Daily quotas and security counters remain unchanged. Previously delivered messages and downloaded files cannot be recalled.

Retries and asynchronous work
Save an Idempotency-Key before sending. Retry it only for the same target and unchanged request. A changed payload returns 409. Use this header only where the endpoint documents it.
Request examples
Replace demo IDs, timestamps and placeholders with your own values. For a retry, keep the same IDs, time and content. These examples do not run requests on this page.
Keep login links, codes, cookies and keys private. Do not print them in logs or share them in support requests.
