Overview
This node allows you to delete a user by specifying their username. It is useful in scenarios where you need to programmatically remove user accounts from a system, such as cleaning up test users, managing user lifecycle, or automating administrative tasks.
For example, if you have an automated workflow that deactivates and deletes users who have been inactive for a certain period, this node can be used to perform the deletion step by providing the username of each user to be removed.
Properties

Output
The node outputs JSON data representing the result of the delete operation. Typically, this will include confirmation of the deletion or any relevant status messages returned by the API. There is no indication that binary data is output by this node.
Dependencies
- Requires access to the Petstore API endpoint at
https://petstore3.swagger.io/api/v3. - May require an API authentication token or key configured in the node's credentials (referred generically as "an API key credential").
- Uses standard HTTP headers for JSON content type.
Troubleshooting
- User Not Found: If the specified username does not exist, the API may return an error indicating the user was not found. Verify the username spelling and existence.
- Authentication Errors: Missing or invalid API credentials will cause authentication failures. Ensure the API key or token is correctly set up.
- Network Issues: Connectivity problems with the Petstore API endpoint will prevent successful deletion. Check network access and endpoint availability.
- Invalid Input: Providing an empty or malformed username will likely cause the request to fail. Always provide a valid, non-empty username string.
