To delete data, TagoIO uses the same query string used to get data, for more details about each query, see here.

Below, we will show some examples of DELETING data using query string.

Examples:

Deleting the last 99 items from the variable temperature.
https://api.<region>.tago.io/data?variable=temperature&qty=99

Idea
Tip: Make sure your request is DELETE and not POST when trying to delete items. Note that posting data is relatively instantaneous while deleting data can take between 10 and 30 seconds to complete.

Deleting the last value from the variable temperature (requires the 'value' attribute on the variable object).
