DELETE Device with api request

[jathe 9]

Hi, I'm trying to delete a device with the API request.

I send this:

curl -X "DELETE" "http://192.168.1.165:8096/emby/Devices" -H "X-Emby-Token: xxxx" -d "Id=15"

And I got all devices deleted.

The question is, wich data need to be on the request or wich url is needed to request to delete just 1 device?

Thanks

Hi, try adding Id=xxx, where xxx is the device id in emby server.

@Lukelike this:

 

curl -X "DELETE" "http://192.168.1.165:8096/emby/Devices?Id=xxx" -H "X-Emby-Token: xxxx"

 

I got Device-Id and Id on the devices list, the Device-id is like a serial number, the Id es just an increased number.

Correct.

Hi.  Just FYI in case this is why you are doing this - removing these devices from your server will not affect your Premiere device limit.  Thanks.

Hi @ebr Actually I'm doing that for that reason!!

I try to understand the published matrix but I'm not totally sure about the way of license consumes.

I have 100 devices license, I understand some devices consumes according to the features, so I think If device bein deleted and no longer sign in, license slot will be clean, is that correct?

Yes but it’s not based on this device list. It’s another internally managed and automatic process based on last active date.

How long does a device count towards my limit?

The system tracks device usage for about a week. So you need to count only devices used regularly by your users when estimating the limit for you. It is important to understand this is a device access limit NOT a concurrent connection limit.
