Remove an Item

The /item/remove endpoint allows you to remove an Item. Once removed, the access_token, as well as any processor tokens or bank account tokens associated with the Item, is no longer valid and cannot be used to access any data that was associated with the Item.

Note that in the Development environment, issuing an /item/remove request will not decrement your live credential count. To increase your credential account in Development, contact Support.

Also note that for certain OAuth-based institutions, an Item removed via /item/remove may still show as an active connection in the institution's OAuth permission manager.

API versions 2019-05-29 and earlier return a removed boolean as part of the response.
