# Stop Monitoring a Profile

`DELETE /api/v1/tracking`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://viraloutliers.com`
- URL: `https://viraloutliers.com/api/v1/tracking`
- Auth: HTTP bearer

Stops monitoring a profile: no further scheduled refresh crawls are charged for it. Free to call. Pass the internal profileId (from list_tracked_profiles or search results). The profile and its already-crawled posts stay in the database and searchable; only the recurring refresh stops. Returns not_found if the profile is not currently being monitored.

Cost: free.

## Query parameters

- `profileId` string, required

## Response `200`

Success

- object

## Other responses

- `401`: Invalid or revoked API key (or, on free skills, no key sent); code key_suspended means the key was suspended when its account was claimed by the email owner and can be reactivated in Settings
- `402`: Payment required. Without an API key (billable skills only) the code is payment_required and error.payment.checkoutUrl (or, when no link is configured, error.payment.pageUrl at https://viraloutliers.com/api-access) buys a key without an account; with a key it is insufficient_credits and error.payment points at create_topup_link.
- `429`: Rate limited
