[Fiware-ngsi] Interpretation of DELETE on http://{serverRoot}/{apiVersion}/contextEntities/{entityID}

[Fermín Galán Márquez]

Current NGSI10 binding document version 1.0 at http://forge.fi-ware.org/plugins/mediawiki/wiki/fiware/index.php/FI-WARE_NGSI:_publicly_available_documents states:

3.1.4 DELETE [on http://{serverRoot}/{apiVersion}/contextEntities/{entityID}]

This operation allows deleting all information about the Context Entity represented by the resource, i.e., all related attribute
values and metadata. The request does not have a body, and the response body is an instance of StatusCode.

Our interpretation of this (and our implementation in Orion Context Broker, aligned with that interpretation) is that removing all related attributes and metadata of an entity is equal to delete the entity itself.

We would like to know how other NGSI implementors are interpreting this. Are your implementing this in a similar way?

Thanks for the feedback!

Best regards,

Fermín
