Delete an eSIM Profile

POST /v1/devices/profile/actions/delete

This API allows the customer to delete the Global eSIM profile. Verizon eSIM profile cannot be deleted. Please include the ICCID and the contracted service plan to perform Delete eSIM Profile API operation. 

Once a Global eSIM profile is deleted, the device will no longer be connected to the local carrier network via the Global eSIM profile. If a new Global profile is required for international connectivity, please ensure the Verizon US eSIM profile is enabled before deleting the Global eSIM profile so you can perform another Download and Enable eSIM Profile API operations or a combined Download_Enabled API operation. 

Please Note: A profile must be disabled before it can be deleted!

Bulk operation: Supported (The callback would be one for each profile).  Bulk operations have a limit of 10,000 requests.

eSIM profiles: Only Global.
