Supports basic regex operators in the identifier field, making it well-suited for pattern-based deletion — for example, removing all products whose part number starts with a given prefix. The operation is asynchronous: the endpoint returns immediately with a list of job IDs (one per affected location) which you can monitor using the Get Job API. Use `dryRun: true` to preview the scope of deletion before executing. For step-by-step guidance including dry run workflow, job monitoring, and self-throttling patterns, see the Bulk Inventory Deletion guide. ## OpenAPI ````yaml /openapi/openapi_inventory.json post /commerce/inventory/v5/inventory/delete openapi: 3.0.0 info: description: |-

INVENTORY

Use the Inventory API to retrieve the inventory levels of requested products, refresh and adjust current stock levels at fulfillment locations, and tag segmented inventory for different channels. When using tags for inventory segmentation, inventory records are separated into categories to identify which portions of its total quantity are intended for different channels, customer groups, fulfillment methods, or other needs. This allows for setting a percentage of the quantity that would be available for each category and setting discrete units at the location level as available for each category. For example, tags could define how much of each inventory record is set aside for a certain sales channel: the Kibo storefront, Walmart, or Amazon. The percentages of the inventory allotted for each channel would add up to 100% - the Kibo storefront could have 80% of the inventory, Amazon 10%, and Walmart 10%. For more information, see the Inventory guides.

Use the Inventory, Inventory Allocation, and Modify Inventory resources to retrieve and update inventory levels.

Use the Inventory Job resource to retrieve information about your pending inventory update processing jobs.

Use the Inventory Tag and Tag Category resources to segment your inventory records.
