DELETE
Delete Twitter post monitor & metric history
Delete a post monitor only when you no longer need the post’s events or metrics. Pause it instead when you might resume.
Free. This endpoint does not consume credits.
Poll verify_endpoint while it answers 200. Deletion is done when it answers 404. Wait for Retry-After between requests.

Before you delete

Export the events & metrics you need first. Deletion removes the monitor’s stored events & hourly metric history. A monitor that Xquik paused for a deleted post costs nothing. Delete it to tidy your list.
