Output shape

array of one element containing an object with resource, operation, count, and data

For a successful removal, MikroTik typically returns an empty response, so data will be an empty array and count will be 0. On error, the node wraps the error in the json field when continueOnFail() is enabled.

Examples

Example 1: Remove a Hotspot user named 'guest'

Set Resource to Hotspot, Category to Users, Operation to Remove, Target ID / Name to guest.

Example 2: Remove an active Hotspot session by its ID

Set Resource to Hotspot, Category to Active, Operation to Remove, Target ID / Name to *5.
