[arin-tech-discuss] Error about the deleting poc

Sean,

An ARIN Online account is different than an Organization record. ARIN Online accounts are setup through the web site only (www.arin.net), and API Keys are associated to ARIN Online accounts. Additionally, ARIN Online accounts are not published in Whois.

The following link describes the process of creating an account and linking it to a POC:

Hi, Andy,
Thanks for the quick response!
I thought it was link to AEI-18 (http://whois.arin.net/rest/org/AEI-18/pocs). Maybe I am misunderstanding your “ARIN Online account”.

Thanks,

Sean,

ZHAOS-ARIN is not linked to any ARIN Online account, and therefore there are no API Keys with authority to delete it. If you link that POC to your ARIN Online account, you'll be able to delete the POC with an API Key on that account.

I hope this helps.

Andy Newton,
Chief Engineer, ARIN

Hi,
                I am trying to delete a poc that I created in 2011 with the url https://www.arin.net/rest/poc/ZHAOS-ARIN?apikey=MY-API-KEY. But I got an error says

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<error xmlns="http://www.arin.net/regrws/core/v1"<http://www.arin.net/regrws/core/v1%22>>
<additionalInfo/>
<code>E_AUTHENTICATION</code>
<components/>
<message>The API key is not authorized to make that request.</message>
</error>

Does that mean I cannot delete the poc even it is created by myself with same apikey? Or I have to unlink all the org associated with this poc before I delete this poc?

Thanks,
