CUSTOMIZATION_ID	UUID	✓	The unique ID of the customization to delete.

Request headers

Header	Value	Description

Example Request

tracker_id="1234-5678"
customization_id="199620b4-df1a-46e8-ab59-9e9ed9af7106"
private_key="your_private_api_key"
host="https://live.luigisbox.com"
path="/v1/recommender/pin/${tracker_id}/scope/${customization_id}"
method="DELETE"
content_type="application/json; charset=utf-8"
date=$(date -u "+%a, %d %b %Y %H:%M:%S GMT")

string_to_sign="$(printf "${method}\n${content_type}\n${date}\n${path}")"
signature=$(echo -n "${string_to_sign}" | openssl dgst -sha256 -hmac "${private_key}" -binary | base64)

curl -X ${method} "${host}${path}" \
  -H "Content-Type: ${content_type}" \
  -H "Date: ${date}" \
  -H "Authorization: ApiAuth ${tracker_id}:${signature}"

How to Make a Request

1. Build the string to sign from the method, content type, date, and full resource path including the customization ID.
2. Generate the HMAC SHA-256 digest with your private key.
3. Send the Date, Content-Type, and Authorization headers with the DELETE request.

Code Examples

Ruby

require 'faraday'
require 'base64'
require 'openssl'
require 'time'

def generate_luigisbox_digest(private_key, http_method, endpoint_path, date_header, content_type_header)
  data = "#{http_method}\n#{content_type_header}\n#{date_header}\n#{endpoint_path}"
  Base64.strict_encode64(OpenSSL::HMAC.digest('sha256', private_key, data)).strip
end

tracker_id = 'YOUR_TRACKER_ID'
customization_id = '199620b4-df1a-46e8-ab59-9e9ed9af7106'
endpoint_path = "/v1/recommender/pin/#{tracker_id}/scope/#{customization_id}"
content_type = 'application/json; charset=utf-8'
date_header = Time.now.utc.strftime("%a, %d %b %Y %H:%M:%S GMT")
signature = generate_luigisbox_digest('your_private_api_key', 'DELETE', endpoint_path, date_header, content_type)

response = Faraday.new(url: 'https://live.luigisbox.com').delete(endpoint_path) do |req|
  req.headers['Date'] = date_header
  req.headers['Content-Type'] = content_type
  req.headers['Authorization'] = "ApiAuth #{tracker_id}:#{signature}"
end
