When I send list of (channel_id, device_type) and let's say i have 4 elements in the list. If one element does not pass validation does api return? In another word we can't have situation where one channel is uninstalled, and other is was not due to validation errors. Is uninstall transactional?

When sending a list of (channel_id, device_type) with multiple elements, the API's behavior in response to validation errors depends on its design. Typically, if one element fails validation, the API may return an error for the entire request rather than processing the valid elements. This ensures consistency and prevents partial processing, such as one channel being uninstalled while others are not due to validation issues.
To address this, you should verify whether the API supports transactional operations for uninstallation. If it does, all actions will be completed successfully, or none will be applied if any validation fails.

Hi there,
When dealing with a list of (channel_id, device_type) in your API, it's crucial to understand how validation affects the uninstall process. If you send a list with multiple elements, and one of them does not pass validation, the API should ideally return an error for the entire request. This means that you can’t have a situation where one channel is uninstalled due to validation errors while others are not processed correctly.
In essence, the uninstall operation should be transactional. If any channel in the list fails validation, the API must ensure that no channels are uninstalled. This approach maintains consistency and integrity in your operations, preventing partial actions that could lead to data inconsistencies.
For example, if you have a list of four channels and one fails validation, the API should roll back any changes and return an error response. This guarantees that all channels are treated as part of a single transaction, ensuring that either all or none of the channels are uninstalled. This way, developers can rely on your API for consistent and predictable behavior.
Implementing a transactional approach enhances the reliability of your API and helps maintain the integrity of your data. If you have any further questions or need assistance with this process, feel free to reach out!
Best,
