Delete application privileges API

New API reference

For the most up-to-date API details, refer to Security APIs.

DELETE /_security/privilege/<application>/<privilege>

To use this API, you must have either:

the manage_security cluster privilege (or a greater privilege such as all); or
the “Manage Application Privileges” global privilege for the application being referenced in the request

application

(Required, string) The name of the application. Application privileges are always associated with exactly one application.

privilege

(Required, string) The name of the privilege.

The following example deletes the read application privilege from the myapp application:

resp = client.security.delete_privileges(
    application="myapp",
    name="read",
)
print(resp)

const response = await client.security.deletePrivileges({
  application: "myapp",
  name: "read",
});
console.log(response);

DELETE /_security/privilege/myapp/read

If the privilege is successfully deleted, the request returns {"found": true}. Otherwise, found is set to false.

{
  "myapp": {
    "read": {
      "found" : true
    }
  }
}
