URL: 
    
    
    https://api.zomro.com/

Method: POST

Request Body (Form-data):

Parameter | Value  
---|---  
func | instances.delete  
auth | 21fc199...c43f71  
out | json  
elid | 5113119  
  
Here is an example of a request that can be executed from the console:
    
    
    curl --location 'https://api.zomro.com/' \
    --form 'func="instances.delete"' \
    --form 'auth="f1662dcabc6b96c85be3af64"' \
    --form 'elid="5113119"' \
    --form 'out="json"'

After executing the request, we can see that the server is in the process of being deleted.

After deletion, we see that the service is absent in the personal account.

As we can see, the services are absent in the personal account, meaning it was deleted.
