Delete Media

Introduction to SMSGatewayCenter APIs

Welcome to SMSGatewayCenter’s API documentation hub! This guide introduces the Delete Media API, a key feature in our messaging suite, including SMS API for bulk messaging, WhatsApp Business API for customer engagement, Voice Call API for automated alerts, and Two-Way SMS API for interactive communication. This API supports only POST methods over HTTP, enabling you to delete media files (e.g., images, videos, documents) previously uploaded to the WhatsApp Business Cloud API. Ideal for developers in India, manage your media efficiently with our SMS gateway at unify.smsgatewaycenter.com/signup/!

Use the Delete Media API to remove unused or outdated media files from WhatsApp’s cloud servers using their media object ID. This endpoint enhances your WhatsApp Business operations by keeping your media library organized, but note that media can only be deleted before expiration (within 30 days of upload) and may impact messages in progress.
