Permanently delete a datamart from your organization. This will remove the datamart and all its associated configurations.
Endpoint Migration Notice: We’re transitioning to kebab-case endpoints. The new endpoint is /api/v2/data-app/datamart. The old endpoint /api/v2/dataApp/datamart will be deprecated soon. Please update your integrations to use the new endpoint format.
This action is irreversible. Once a datamart is deleted, all its data configurations and associated embed configurations will be permanently removed.

​
Endpoint Formats

​
Authentication

This endpoint requires a service token in the Authorization header. Service tokens differ from data app API keys and provide organization-level permissions. To access your service token:
  1. In Settings page, navigate to the Service Tokens section.
  2. Click the “Generate Token” button to create a new service token if you don’t have one already.
Use this token as the Bearer value in your Authorization header.

​

Best Practices

Check Dependencies

Before deleting, verify no embed configurations depend on this datamart

Backup Data

Consider exporting important configurations before deletion

Test Environment

Test deletion process in a non-production environment first

Documentation

Document the deletion for audit and compliance purposes

​
Quick Start Guide

1

List your datamarts

First, see which datamarts you have available to identify the one to delete:
curl --request GET \
  --url https://api.usedatabrain.com/api/v2/data-app/datamarts \
  --header 'Authorization: Bearer dbn_live_abc123...'
2

Check dependencies

Before deleting, ensure no embed configurations are using this datamart. Use the List Embeds API to verify.
3

Delete the datamart

Make the deletion request with the exact datamart name as a query parameter:
curl --request DELETE \
  --url 'https://api.usedatabrain.com/api/v2/data-app/datamart?datamartName=sales-analytics' \
  --header 'Authorization: Bearer dbn_live_abc123...'
4

Update dependent configurations

Update any embed configurations that were using this datamart to reference a different datamart:
// Update embeds that used the deleted datamart
await updateEmbed({
  embedId: 'embed_123',
  accessSettings: {
    datamartName: 'replacement-datamart'
  }
});
Critical: This action permanently deletes the datamart and cannot be undone. Ensure all dependent configurations are updated before deletion.
