In our June release we added web services for deleting mapped product(s), deleting mapped files from a product and deleting a mapped file from multiple products.
The following code sample shows how to delete mapped products.
IMPORTANT: Please use and/or test this code very carefully as this delete cannot be undone.
The first part of the code is used to login to the web service and get the encrypted token. The second part of the code is for deleting mapped products. The web service for deleting mapped products should be called with a post parameter named "mappedproductid" with a comma separated list of mapped product id's.
Get the mapped product id's from the web service for getting the list of products.

The code for deleting mapped files for a product and deleting mapped file from multiple products is similar to the code above.
The relative URL for deleting multiple mapped files from a single product is “/member/wer/user/DeleteMappedFilesForProduct.aspx”. This form requires two POST parameters. One is the “mappedproductid” parameter with the id of the mapped product and the second is “mappedfileid” which is the comma seperated list of mapped file id’s to delete.
