Deleting Database Users

You can remove user accounts from a certain database. Specify the user login name and ID of the database where you want to remove the user. You can remove all users from all databases in a single del-db-user operation.

Request Packet Structure

A request XML packet deleting a user from the database includes the del-db-user operation node:

<packet>
<database>
   <del-db-user>
   ...
   </del-db-user>
</database>
</packet>

The del-db-user node is presented by type DatabaseDelDBUserInputType (database_input.xsd), and its graphical representation is as follows:

• The filter node is required. Specifies the filtering rule. For more information, refer to the Available Filters section. Data type: DatabaseUserFilterType.
• The id node is optional. It specifies the ID of the user you want to delete. Data type: integer.
• The db-id node is optional. It specifies the ID of the database where a new user will be created. Data type: integer.

Remarks

You can delete multiple users from the database using a single packet. Add as many del-db-user operations as the number of different users you want to delete from the database.

<database>
   <del-db-user>
   ...
   </del-db-user>
...
   <del-db-user>
   ...
   </add-db-user>
</database>

You can also delete all users from the different databases using this construction.

Note: Use the <filter/> parameter if you want to delete all users from all databases available for the sender.

Important: When creating request packets, put nodes and elements in the order they follow in the packet structure.

Response Packet Structure

The del-db-user node of the output XML packet is presented by type DatabaseDelDBUserOutputType (database_output.xsd) and structured as follows:

• The result node is required. It wraps the response retrieved from the server. Data type: resultFilterType (common.xsd).
• The status node is required. It specifies the execution status of the del-db-user operation. Data type: string. Allowed values: ok | error.
• The errcode node is optional. It returns the error code if the del-db--user operation fails. Data type: integer.
• The errtext node is optional. It returns the error message if the del-db--user operation fails. Data type: string.
• The filter-id node is optional. It returns the filtering rule parameter. For more information, refer to the Available Filters section.
• The id node is required. If the del-db-user operation succeeds, it specifies the database user ID. Data type: integer.

Samples

Deleting database user

This request packet removes the user with ID 55 from the database with ID 2.

<packet>
<database>
   <del-db-user>

      <filter>
          <id>55</id>
      </filter>

   </del-db-user>
</database>
</packet>

Reponse:

<packet>
<database>
   <del-db-user>

      <result>
          <status>ok</status>
          <filter-id>55</filter-id>
          <id>55</id>
      </result>

   </del-db-user>
</database>
</packet>

Deleting multiple database users

This request packet removes all users from the database with ID 45.

<packet>
<database>

   <del-db-user>
      <id>45</id>
   </del-db-user>

</database>
</packet>

Respone (when the users with ID 7 and ID 8 were removed from the database):

<packet>
<database>
   <del-db-user>

      <result>
          <status>ok</status>
          <filter-id>45</filter-id>
          <id>7</id>
      </result>

      <result>
          <status>ok</status>
          <filter-id>45</filter-id>
          <id>8</id>
      </result>

   </del-db-user>
</database>
</packet>
