# Users Delete

POST https://api.dropboxapi.com/2/agent_filesystem/users/delete
Content-Type: application/json

Disables up to 100 managed users owned by the authenticated Provider app
 and schedules their account data for deletion. This is not recoverable.
 File purge is asynchronous. Failed batches can have partial results;
 retry the same user selectors to finish deletion.
 This pilot requires app authentication; tenant credentials are not supported.

**Required scope:** `private:agent_filesystem.users.manage OR private:agent_filesystem.tenant.users.manage`

**Endpoint format:** [RPC](https://docs.dropboxapi.com/dropbox-api/docs/technical-reference/request-response-formats#rpc-endpoints)

**Authentication:** [App](https://docs.dropboxapi.com/dropbox-api/docs/auth-types#app-authentication)

This endpoint does not support apps with the app folder permission.

Reference: https://docs.dropboxapi.com/agentfs/api-reference/agent-filesystem/users-delete

## Authentication

- `Authorization` header (bearer token, required) — App-level OAuth 2.0 token (no user context). Use `Authorization: Bearer <token>`. Obtain by calling the token endpoint with `grant_type=client_credentials`. Only available on endpoints that declare app auth support.

## Request

### Body (application/json)

This endpoint expects an agent_filesystem.DeleteUsersArg.

- `users` (list of agent_filesystem.UserSelector, required) — Users to delete.

## Response

### 200
