### Overview

Delete (or partially delete) multiple service level objective objects.

This endpoint facilitates deletion of one or more thresholds for one or more
service level objective objects. If all thresholds are deleted, the service level
objective object is deleted as well.

This endpoint requires the `slos_write` permission.

OAuth apps require the `slos_write` authorization [scope](https://dnd37xeb23o8n.cloudfront.net/jen.gilbert/astro-base/api/latest/scopes.md#service-level-objectives) to access this endpoint.

### Response

{% tabs %}
{% tab label="200" %}
OK

{% tabs %}
{% tab label="Model" %}
The bulk partial delete service level objective object endpoint
response.

This endpoint operates on multiple service level objective objects, so
it may be partially successful. In such cases, the "data" and "error"
fields in this response indicate which deletions succeeded and failed.
