Issue with delete-participants API call in extension

Question

For some reason I cannot get a “delete-participants” API call to work in my extension.I can make other calls work, so it is not the connection or authentication. I keep on getting a 500 (internal server error), unless if I deliberately configure the body as a string instead of an array, then I get a 400 error.I have tried all possible and impossible options to format the body, but a no point have I been successful in getting this to work from the extension. It is not a problem to get this to work from Postman, but running it from the extension just does not work.This is the simplified code (with project ID hidden):module.exports = async function(context) {    let getDeleteParticipants;        try {        const requestOptionsDelete = {            method: "POST",            body: ["DisableTestID"],              };        getDeleteParticipants = await context.client.qualtricsApiFetch('ex-projects/TS_……./delete-participants', requestOptionsDelete);        if (error.status === 201){            return {                message: 'Job completed without any errors.',                getDeleteParticipants: getDeleteParticipants,                errorStatus: error.status            };        } else {            return {                message: 'Job failed.',                getDeleteParticipants: getDeleteParticipants,                errorStatus: error.status            };        }            } catch (error){            return {            message: 'Error happened.',            getDeleteParticipants: getDeleteParticipants,            errorStatus: error.status        };    }}; And this is the output:{  "actionId": "OCAC_ITu8fegq6eeSfFI",  "exports": {    "getDeleteParticipants": {      "responseData": {        "error": {          "errorCode": "DPG_0.0",          "errorMessage": "An unexpected error occurred."        },        "meta": {          "httpStatusCode": 500,          "requestId": "1798ee66-73eb-48db-8e9e-899b24702d6e"        }      },      "status": 500    },    "message": "Error happened."  }}Can anyone make this work?

Hi @JesperAndersenThequaltricsApiFetch method should now work for delete-participant in ex-projects now.Give it a shot and let me know if you run into anything else.

Hi @JesperAndersenI’m going to have our teams look at this, but in the meantime, using context.client.fetch does actually work for this API. The downside is that you have to take in a client credential to do it, so using the generic fetch may not work. Let me know.deleteParticipantBody = ['email@domain.com'];const fetchPostResponse = await context.client.fetch(`https://yul1.qualtrics.com/API/v3/ex-projects/${projectId}/delete-participants`, {      method: 'POST',      body: deleteParticipantBody,      connection: {        connectionName: 'connName',        paramFormat: 'header',        paramName: 'X-API-TOKEN',        paramTemplate: '%s'      }    });
