Deletes one of your watchlists including its memberships, and frees the watchlist slot and followed-profile slots it used. Free to call. Works for lists created through the API or in the web app; only the owner can delete a list.
Remove a watchlist and everything in it in one free call. The watchlist slot and every followed-profile slot it used are released back to your allowance, so cleaning up temporary lists is how an agent keeps room for new ones.
DELETE /api/v1/watchlists. Authenticate with your API key. Same call in three languages:
cURL
curl -X DELETE "https://viraloutliers.com/api/v1/watchlists" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer so_live_YOUR_KEY"Python (requests)
import requests
r = requests.delete(
"https://viraloutliers.com/api/v1/watchlists",
headers={"Authorization": "Bearer so_live_YOUR_KEY"},
)
print(r.json())JavaScript (fetch)
const res = await fetch("https://viraloutliers.com/api/v1/watchlists", {
method: "DELETE",
headers: { "Authorization": "Bearer so_live_YOUR_KEY" },
});
const data = await res.json();
console.log(data);| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
watchlistId* | string | Watchlist id (query string or JSON body). |
Deletes the watchlist and its memberships and returns deleted:true. Any list you own is eligible, whether it was created through the API or in the web app; the allowance bookkeeping is identical on both surfaces.
This skill is free and never spends credits.
Yes. Deleting releases the watchlist slot and one followed-profile slot per creator that was in it, so you can create a new list or add creators elsewhere immediately.
Also available as an MCP tool.
