How remove/delete user account for webSDK

Behzad_Pashaie · April 8, 2021, 10:47am

Hi there,
I could not find documentation for how to remove user by webSDK. Lets say a user wants to DELETE his/her user account. is there a realm function for this? Kindly tell me a safe right way of doing this.

Notice I dont mean deleting the user form Realm UI. I know this.

Kind regards,
Behzad Pashaie

A user does not have the privilege to delete their user via the user-facing API, but you could setup a function that deletes the user via the Realm Admin API. This way you can ensure that any documents “owned” by that user is also being properly deleted.

Dear @kraenhansen ,
related to the same issue. Can you kindly say what is the difference between apiKey generated from Project Access manager & apiKey generated from Organisation Access manger?
And Which of them should be user to generate and API key to use the API for deleting user ?

Thanks
