Contacts
Delete a Contact Identifier
DELETE /v3/marketing/contacts/{contact_id}/identifiers
Base url: https://api.sendgrid.com
This endpoint can be used to delete one identifier from a contact.
Deletion jobs are processed asynchronously.
Note this is different from deleting a contact. If the contact has only one identifier, the asynchronous request will fail. All contacts are required to have at least one identifier.
The request body field identifier_type must have a valid value of "EMAIL", "PHONENUMBERID","EXTERNALID", or "ANONYMOUSID".
