Want to hit the reset button on a user profile on a schedule? Schedule Appcues Public API requests with Postman! The delete user profile endpoint will wipe out the user profile and reset all their experiences, profile attributes, and tracked events. Next time they log in or you run an identify() call, and they'll start fresh with a clean slate—perfect for testing! 

Note that this endpoint does not remove user activity from analytics and reporting.

See Postman's documentation for more details about Schedules.

• Navigate to your Postman Collections

• Click the + icon to add a new Collection.

• Click "Blank collection"

• Give your Collection a name

• Click "Add a request"

• Click the "METHOD" field and Select "DELETE"

• Provide Request URL with Account ID and User ID

The request URL to delete user profiles is https://api.appcues.com/v2/accounts/{account_id}/users/{user_id}/profile. You will need to replace the placeholders in the URL with your account ID and the user ID of the profile you want deleted. 

• Click “Authorization” Tab

• Choose “Basic Auth” Auth Type

• Enter Appcues API Key and Secret

You can create an Appcues API Key and Secret in your account. 

• Click on Collection

• Click “Runs” Tab

• Click “Scheduled”

• Click "Schedule Runs"

• Ensure the “Schedule Runs” option is selected 

• Name Schedule and Set Frequency

This is the step where you can set up how often you would like the Collection requests to run. For this example, we are going to set up a weekly deletion that occurs at midnight every Monday, but you can choose what works best for you!

• Set Environment and Iterations

Select the Environment (if necessary) and the number of times (iterations) you'd like the schedule to run. Postman has a limit of 50 iterations.

• Schedule Run

That's it! Postman will now run your Collection's requests according to the schedule you set.
