You can get a list of your files using the endpoint

Below is an example of how to hit this endpoint using Postman. You must authenticate your request with Basic Auth (the API keys you created above).
The response will look like:
WARNING: A delete request will immediately delete the file.
To delete a file by URL, you will need to send the file url you have saved as the url parameter to the delete endpoint. An example delete request is shown below:
wget -qO /dev/stdout \
--method=delete \
--user "p9ea67c85ebc7a43d765e6125b83e6cc4" \
--password "sbde6eb4206d781dcdfbc" \
"https://app.simplefileupload.com/api/v1/file?url=the_complete_file_url_you_have_saved"
If the delete request is successful, you will receive the following message:
File successfully destroyed
To delete a file by ID, using the api/v1/files/:id format:
wget -qO /dev/stdout \
--method=delete \
--user "p9ea67c85ebc7a43d765e6125b83e6cc4" \
--password "sbde6eb4206d781dcdfbcd" \
