Authentication
Send an API key as a bearer token. This endpoint does not state a specific permission in the specification, so give your key the least it needs and check the response rather than assuming.
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/content/placements/{placementId} \
-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
Refused with 422 once the post is `published` — cancelling a schedule does not take a live page down, and answering 200 would leave the customer believing it had. Gated on `links.edit`.
Parameters
| Name | Type | Required | What it is |
|---|---|---|---|
placementId (path) | string | Yes | — |
Response
| Name | Type | Required | What it is |
|---|---|---|---|
id | string | Yes | — |
post_id | string | Yes | — |
post_title | string | Yes | — |
site_id | string | Yes | — |
site_domain | string | Yes | — |
category | string | Yes | The WordPress category NAME. Empty means the site's default category. A name rather than a term id because term ids are per-site and one post goes to many. |
publish_at | string | Yes | When the sweep may publish it — not a promise about the second. |
status | string<scheduled, publishing, published, failed, cancelled> | Yes | — |
wp_post_id | integer | Yes | Null until the post is live. Nullable rather than `0`, because "not published yet" and "published as post 0" are different facts and a zero renders as a broken link. |
wp_post_url | string | Yes | — |
target_kind | string<, wordpress, headless_rest, git_static> | Yes | Which adapter published it. Empty until it publishes. A placement is no longer necessarily a WordPress post — `wp_post_id`/`wp_post_url` above are the WordPress projection of th… |
remote_post_id | string | Yes | What the destination calls the thing it created. A **string**, because a Ghost id is a hex ObjectId, a Shopify id is a GID URL and a Git target's is a commit sha — only WordPres… |
remote_post_url | string | Yes | Where it lives. Empty when the destination does not report a URL. |
dropped_capabilities | string[][] | Yes | What the destination could not carry, and why — `[["featured_image", "this destination has nowhere to attach a featured image"], …]`. ⛔ Empty is the normal case and means nothin… |
error | string | Yes | A machine code the client localises, never a sentence. One of `site_not_active`, `site_changed_owner`, `no_adapter`, `no_target_configured`, `no_credential`, `no_repository`, `m… |
published_at | string | Yes | — |
created_at | string | Yes | — |
