# Bulk delete blocked spam sources

`DELETE /v3/blocked_spam_sources/bulk`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://harvest.greenhouse.io`
- URL: `https://harvest.greenhouse.io/v3/blocked_spam_sources/bulk`
- Auth: OAuth 2
  - Authorization code: `https://auth.greenhouse.io/authorize`
  - Client credentials
  - Token URL: `https://auth.greenhouse.io/token` scopes: `harvest:blocked_spam_sources:destroy`

Removes multiple blocked spam sources in a single request, identified by id. Future applications from the previously blocked sources will no longer be auto-rejected; applications already rejected against the deleted entries remain rejected. Per-item failures are reported in the response without aborting the rest of the batch.

## Request body

- object
  - `callback_url` string: Optional HTTPS URL Greenhouse will POST to when every row in `data` has finished. Omit to poll `GET /v3/bulk_requests/{bulk_action_uuid}` instead.
  - `data` integer[], required: Array of integer ids identifying the records to delete. Each id is dispatched to the matching non-bulk DELETE endpoint in its own Sidekiq job.

## Response `202`

Accepted

- object
  - `bulk_action_uuid` string: UUID assigned to the new bulk request. Use this with `GET /v3/bulk_requests/{bulk_action_uuid}` to monitor progress and retrieve per-row results.
  - `status` string: Initial lifecycle state of the new bulk request, typically `building` immediately after creation. See the bulk request response schema for the full set of values.
  - `status_url` string: Relative path that returns the current status of the bulk request. Append this to your Harvest base URL to fetch the latest state.
