Implementation

To delete multiple subjects, add the following lines of code to your processing script:

## README: this example shows how we can delete multiple subjects from Moveshelf 
# using the Moveshelf API.

# Delete multiple subjects at once
subject_ids = [
    "<subjectId_1>",
    "<subjectId_2>",
    "<subjectId_3>"
]

results = api.deleteSubjects(subject_ids)

# Check results
for subject_id, success in results.items():
    status = "SUCCESS" if success else "FAILED"
    print(f"Subject {subject_id}: {status}")

# Count successes and failures
successful = sum(results.values())
total = len(subject_ids)
print(f"Deleted {successful}/{total} subjects successfully")
