Regarding self-initiated Identity deletion, this use case can be utilized to initiate an IdentityDeletionProcess for your Identity. The generated IdentityDeletionProcess immediately has "Approved" as its status and describes that the Identity will be deleted after the grace period ends unless the IdentityDeletionProcess is cancelled by the Identity by then.

This use case can be utilized by using the Identity deletion initialization command of the Connector CLI operations, but not by using the Connector REST API.

On Success

  • Creates an IdentityDeletionProcess with "Approved" as status.
  • Returns the initiated IdentityDeletionProcess.

On Failure

  • No IdentityDeletionProcess can be initiated if there is already an active IdentityDeletionProcess, i.e. an IdentityDeletionProcess with "Approved" or "WaitingForApproval" as status, for this Identity. Please note that an IdentityDeletionProcess with "WaitingForApproval" as status is never created by the self-initiated Identity deletion, but only by the process of Identity deletion triggered via the Backbone Admin UI. However, the latter feature is currently disabled.
