{

}
Delete all proxy keys associated with your account in a single operation. The URL is static (no path parameter), so it is exact-matched at the edge and unaffected by the path-traversal-append DDoS pattern.

  -H "Authorization: Bearer $ELECTRONHUB_API_KEY"

​
Overview

This endpoint is useful for bulk cleanup, security incidents, or account reset scenarios. It iterates every proxy key on your account and deletes each one.
Irreversible Action: This permanently deletes ALL proxy keys. This action cannot be undone, and all deleted keys will immediately stop working.

​
Important Considerations

All proxy keys stop working immediately. Any applications using these keys will start receiving authentication errors.
All unused credits from deleted proxy keys are returned to your main account balance.
Deleted keys cannot be recovered. You’ll need to recreate any keys you still need.
The operation executes immediately without additional confirmation prompts.

​
Before Bulk Deletion

Make sure to:
  1. Audit Current Keys — use List Proxy Keys to review what will be deleted.
  2. Update Applications — remove or replace proxy keys in all applications.
  3. Backup Configurations — save key settings if you might need to recreate them.
  4. Notify Team — inform team members who might be using the keys.
  5. Check Dependencies — verify no critical services depend on the proxy keys.

Example Workflow

Python - Safe Bulk Deletion
import httpx

def safe_bulk_delete_proxy_keys(api_key: str) -> dict:
    """Safely delete all proxy keys with confirmation."""
    client = httpx.Client(
        base_url="https://api.electronhub.ai",
        headers={"Authorization": f"Bearer {api_key}"},
    )

    list_response = client.get("/v1/auth/proxy")
    proxy_keys = list_response.json()

    if not proxy_keys:
        print("No proxy keys to delete")
        return {"message": "No proxy keys found"}

    print(f"Found {len(proxy_keys)} proxy keys:")
    for key in proxy_keys:
        print(f"  - {key['name']} ({key['key']})")

    confirm = input("Delete ALL proxy keys? (type 'DELETE' to confirm): ")
    if confirm != "DELETE":
        print("Deletion cancelled")
        return {"message": "Deletion cancelled"}

    delete_response = client.delete("/v1/auth/proxy/delete")
    result = delete_response.json()
    print(f"Bulk deletion completed: {result['message']}")
    return result

result = safe_bulk_delete_proxy_keys(api_key)

​
Use Cases

Security Incident

Quickly revoke all delegated access during a security breach.

Account Reset

Clean slate when restructuring API access patterns.

Project Cleanup

Remove all temporary keys after project completion.

Key Rotation

Part of a complete key rotation strategy.

​
Alternative Approaches

Consider these alternatives before using bulk deletion:
Delete specific keys using Delete Proxy Key for more control.
Temporarily disable each key instead of deleting it:
for key in proxy_keys:
    httpx.post(
        "https://api.electronhub.ai/v1/auth/proxy/toggle",
        headers={
            "Authorization": f"Bearer {api_key}",
            "Content-Type": "application/json",
        },
        json={"proxy_key": key["key"]},
    )
Delete only specific keys (here: only expired ones):
import time
current_time = int(time.time())

for key in proxy_keys:
    if key["expires_at"] != -1 and key["expires_at"] < current_time:
        httpx.post(
            "https://api.electronhub.ai/v1/auth/proxy/remove",
            headers={
                "Authorization": f"Bearer {api_key}",
                "Content-Type": "application/json",
            },
            json={"proxy_key": key["key"]},
        )
