Delete Twins

When Digital Twins are no longer needed they can be deleted through the IOTICS API.

Introduction to Delete Digital Twins

You may wish to delete one or more Twins if you no longer need them and no other Twins are following their data feeds. You can delete Twins and Twin Models in the same way you have created them, through the IOTICS API.

Delete Digital Twin Models

Delete a Twin Model with the IOTICS API

When deleting a Twin Model, make sure you also delete all the Twins belonging to that Model. In fact, a Twin without its Model:

  • by concept is meaningless: every Twin must belong to a specific existing Twin template (e.g. Twin Model);
  • the Twin's property Twin from Model would point to a non-existing Twin DID.
