Delete a Device Group
Last updated - 23 July, 2025
You can use LogicMonitor’s REST API to programmatically delete LogicMonitor device groups.
As with all of our API calls, authentication is required.
HTTP Method: DELETE
URI: device/groups/<id>
Example
The following Python script deletes device group 115:
#!/bin/env python import requests import json import hashlib import base64 import time import hmac #Account Info AccessId ='48v2wRzfK94y53sq5EuF' AccessKey ='H_D9i(f5~B^U36^K6i42=^nS~e75gy382Bf6{)P+' Company = 'api' #Request Info httpVerb ='DELETE' resourcePath = '/device/groups/115' queryParams = '' data = '' #Construct URL url = 'https://'+ Company +'.logicmonitor.com/santaba/rest' + resourcePath + queryParams #Get current time in milliseconds epoch = str(int(time.time() * 1000)) #Concatenate Request details requestVars = httpVerb + epoch + data + resourcePath #Construct signature hmac1 = hmac.new(AccessKey.encode(),msg=requestVars.encode(),digestmod=hashlib.sha256).hexdigest() signature = base64.b64encode(hmac1.encode()) #Construct headers auth = 'LMv1 ' + AccessId + ':' + signature.decode() + ':' + epoch #Make request response = requests.delete(url, data=data, headers=headers) #Print status and body of response print('Response Status:',response.status_code) print('Response Body:',response.content)Python 3
