DeleteUser Service Operation - Customer Management
Deletes a user.
Note
Only a user with Super Admin credentials can delete users. For more information, see the User Roles technical guide.
Because the delete operation requires the time stamp of the most recent user write operation, you must first call the GetUser operation. The GetUser operation returns the user's data, which includes the time stamp. The delete call will fail if you use an old time stamp e.g., the user data is updated by your application or another application after you obtained the time stamp.
You cannot delete a user who is the primary user of any accounts. Before you can delete a primary user, set the PrimaryUserId element of each account to a different user.
Request Elements
The DeleteUserRequest object defines the body and header elements of the service operation request. The elements must be in the same order as shown in the Request SOAP.
Note
Unless otherwise noted below, all request elements are required.
Request Body Elements
Element | Description | Data Type |
---|---|---|
TimeStamp | The time-stamp value that the operation uses to reconcile the update. You must call GetUser to get the time-stamp value. The delete operation fails if the user object has a time-stamp value that differs from the one that you pass. | base64Binary |
UserId | The identifier of the user to delete. | long |
Request Header Elements
Element | Description | Data Type |
---|---|---|
AuthenticationToken | The OAuth access token that represents the credentials of a user who has permissions to Microsoft Advertising accounts. For more information see Authentication with OAuth. |
