    Hi Guys,

    We are trying the deletion of the VDB through API.We have used the below code but not getting the correct output.
    curl -X POST -k http://$DE/resources/json/delphix/database/ORACLE-DB_CONTAINER-54/delete \
    -b ~/cookies.txt -H "Content-Type: application/json"
    {
    "type": "OracleDeleteParameters"
    }
    {"type":"ErrorResult","status":"ERROR","error":{"type":"APIError","details":"The reference \"ORACLE-DB_CONTAINER-54\" is invalid or of the incorrect type.","action":"Check the source of the reference and the documentation for the requested API. Try again with the correct reference type.","id":"exception.webservices.api.invalid.reference","commandOutput":null,"diagnoses":[]}}[root@oraclesource ~]# {

    Hi Swathy,

    It's a simple typo mistake here, you need to use the container reference "ORACLE_DB_CONTAINER-54", you have a hyphen instead of an underscore after the word ORACLE in your example.

    Hope that helps,

    Scott.
