Delete a user in accordance with GDPR

This section provides instructions for deleting a user in accordance with GDPR rules. Bulk DELETEs are not supported.

When using this method, the user's information (such as name, email, first name, last name) is erased, and is replaced with the reference code you provide everywhere in OpenText Core Software Delivery Platform. We recommend that you manage an external file that maps deleted OpenText Core Software Delivery Platform users to reference codes.
