# Reset your data

`POST /my-data/reset`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://gorest.co.in/public/v3`
- URL: `https://gorest.co.in/public/v3/my-data/reset`
- Auth: HTTP bearer

Deletes every v3 row your account owns (users, posts, comments, tasks, products, carts and orders; your tokens stay) in one transaction. With `{"sample_data": true}` it then copies the sample data in as your own rows, with new ids, so you can change them; your lists show these copies instead of the sample data. This is the only way to free the order caps, as orders cannot be deleted. A reset while another reset of the account runs gets 409.

## Headers

- `Idempotency-Key` string

## Request body

- MyDataReset
  - `sample_data` boolean: Copy the sample data in as your own rows after the delete.

## Response `200`
