compute
DELETE /v1/compute/servers/{serverId}/administrator-password
Delete our copy of a Windows server's Administrator password.
Authentication
Send an API key as a bearer token. The endpoint checks sites.delete, sites.view; a key without it is refused with 403, not 404.
This endpoint takes no organisation id. Your key already identifies the organisation it belongs to, and the response is scoped to it.
Try it
Replace anything in angle brackets with your own values, and the key placeholder with a key from your dashboard.
curl -X DELETE https://api.zinndigital.com/v1/compute/servers/{serverId}/administrator-password \
-H "Authorization: Bearer zdk_live_…"Signed in? The API console in your dashboard fills in your real organisation id and your own key, and runs the request against the live API so you can see the actual response. Open this endpoint in the API console
Details
Once you have saved the password (or changed it on the machine), delete our copy. After this, nobody at Zinn Digital® can show it again. The deletion is audit-logged. It is also deleted automatically when the machine is cancelled.
Parameters
| Name | Type | Required | What it is |
|---|---|---|---|
serverId (path) | Uuid | Yes | The server's id, as listComputeServers reports it. Ours (UUIDv7), minted when the order row was written — never the provider's own identifier for the machine. |
