Parameters

The source type. Valid values: x, discord

Request Body

You can use either eid (external ID) or iid (internal ID) to identify the source to stop tracking:
eid
string
External ID - the platform-specific identifier (e.g., X user ID, Discord channel ID). Use this when you know the source’s external identifier.
iid
string
Internal ID - the Scrapest internal source ID (UUID). Use this when you have the internal ID from a previous API response.
You must provide either eid or iid, but not both. Use eid when you know the external identifier (like a X handle), or iid when you have the internal UUID from a previous tracking response.

Response
