Delete feature
DELETE /rest/api/1/project/{projectId}/feature/delete
When using the deletion API, you can provide either a .feature
file or a feature name as input. However, if both are provided, the API will prioritize the feature name, and the .feature
file will be disregarded. This ensures that the feature name is always used if specified, regardless of whether a file is also provided.
Name | Required | Type | Description |
---|---|---|---|
name | No | string | Feature name to delete (ensure the value is URL -encoded) |
form-data: file | No | file | Feature to delete |
