Delete External ID for an Entity

Purpose: Use this endpoint to delete the external integration ID for an entity. For example, if you were earlier using a third-party integration for managing your users, and no longer require it, you can go ahead and call this endpoint to remove the association of your users with the third-party software inside Motive.

📘

NOTE

For updating the external integration details of entities such as users, vehicles, assets, or groups, you will require a Motive generated 'id'. This can be obtained by passing the GET v1/{entity}/:id endpoint.

For example, if you are updating the external integration info for a user, pass the GET v1/user/:<user_id>. This endpoint will now give you the following output:

"external_ids": [
      {
        "id": 809946,
        "external_id": "112233",
        "integration_name": "INT"
      },

Add the id value to the path parameter.
