# Bulk-delete supporting-document records from a credentialing workflow

`POST /credentialing-workflows/{workflowId}/supporting-documents/bulk-delete`

Deletes multiple supporting-document records in one action. Each recordId uses the '{section}-{index}' format (e.g. 'supportingDocuments-3'); section must be supportingDocuments. Deletion is a single read-modify-write and hard-deletes the records (no tombstone), matching single-record delete behaviour. Partial failures (malformed, wrong section, out-of-bounds, duplicate recordIds) are reported per record and do not block the valid deletions.

## Path parameters

- `tenant-id` string, required

## Request body

- BulkDeleteSupportingDocumentsRequest — Identifiers of the supporting-document records to delete in one action.

## Response `200`

At least one record was deleted; body reports the deleted and failed records

- BulkDeleteSupportingDocumentsResponse — Outcome of a supporting-document bulk-delete request, per record.
  - `deleted` string[], required — Record identifiers that were successfully deleted.
  - `failed` BulkDeleteSupportingDocumentsFailedRecord[], required — Records that could not be deleted, with the reason for each.
