You can use the DELETE method to log out of the z/OSMF server and delete the user's
authentication tokens (JSON Web Tokens and LTPA tokens). Your request cookie must include a valid
JSON Web Token or LTPA token (or both).
HTTP method and URI path
DELETE /zosmf/services/authenticate
Where:
/zosmf/services specifies the z/OSMF REST services API.
/authenticate indicates an authentication request.
Query parameters
None.
Standard headers
Use the following standard HTTP header with this
request:
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded
Customer headers
X-CSRF-ZOSMF-HEADER
This
header is required for both browser and non-browser applications. Set the header to any value or an
empty string ("").
For more information, see Allowing cross-site access to REST services.
On completion, the service returns an HTTP response, which includes a status code
that indicates whether your request completed. Status code 204 indicates success. A
status code of 4nn or 5nn indicates that an error
occurred.
Example
