  --request DELETE \
  --header "Authorization: meowmeowmeow" \
  --header "Content-Type: application/json" \
  --data '{
      "mode": "wipe"
  }'

Parameter	Required	Description
`mode`	No	The default value for this parameter is `wipe`. Using `wipe` will delete the content of the alert group but keep the metadata, which is helpful if you’ve sent sensitive information to OnCall. On the other hand, passing `delete` will fully erase the alert group and its metadata, as well as delete related messages in Slack and other platforms.

NOTE: DELETE can take a few moments to delete alert groups because Grafana OnCall interacts with 3rd party APIs such as Slack. Please check objects using GET to be sure the data is removed.
