Understanding Ad Deletion Flow in Autovit.ro API

When deleting an ad via the Autovit.ro API, it’s important to follow the correct flow. Ads cannot be deleted directly—they must first be deactivated.

Step 1: Deactivate the Ad
Before deletion, the ad must be moved to an inactive state. This ensures that it is no longer visible or active in the platform.

Step 2: Delete the Ad
Once the ad is deactivated, you can proceed with the deletion using the following endpoint:

DELETE https://www.autovit.ro/api/open/adverts/:id

Replace :id with the actual ID of the ad you want to delete.

Important Notes

• Attempting to delete an active ad will result in an error.

• Always ensure the ad is successfully deactivated before making the DELETE request.

For full details, refer to the API documentation:

By following this two-step process (deactivate → delete), you can ensure a smooth and error-free ad removal flow.
