Description:

Although this feature is not documented, it would be a great help if it worked. As the title says, I'm unable to delete one or many companies/contacts with the bulk API request. The request I send look like this:
curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" -i -XDELETE admin:[email protected]/api/contacts/batch/delete -d'[{"id":533},{"id":534}]'

The ressults I get from Mautic allways looks like this:

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Server: nginx/1.10.3 (Ubuntu)
Content-Type: application/json
Transfer-Encoding: chunked
Connection: keep-alive

Mautic-Version: 2.12.2
Cache-Control: no-cache
Date: Thu, 03 May 2018 07:48:35 GMT

{
    "contacts": []
}

It may also could be my fault, as I haven't found any documentation about this feature and just derived the usage from api/companies/batch/new and api/companies/batch/edit

If a bug:

| Q | A
| --- | ---
| Mautic version | 2.12.2
| PHP version | 7.0.25-0

Steps to reproduce:

1. Create one or multiple companies or contacts in Mautic
2. Try to delete the companies/contacts via the bulk API request
3. See how the companies/contacts don't get deleted

Hi there, as we are only providing fixes for Mautic 3.x going forward, can you confirm if this continues in Mautic 3.0.1?
Thanks!

Hi, without any feedback we cannot carry this issue open anymore. I'll close it and in case a new comment justify to re-open it, I'll be glad to do it :)
