# NetBox v2.10

## v2.10-beta1 (FUTURE)

**NOTE:** This release completely removes support for embedded graphs.

### New Features

#### REST API Bulk Deletion ([#3436](https://github.com/netbox-community/netbox/issues/3436))

The REST API now supports the bulk deletion of objects of the same type in a single request. Send a `DELETE` HTTP request to the list to the model's list endpoint (e.g. `/api/dcim/sites/`) with a list of JSON objects specifying the numeric ID of each object to be deleted. For example, to delete sites with IDs 10, 11, and 12, issue the following request:

```no-highlight
curl -s -X DELETE \
-H "Authorization: Token $TOKEN" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
http://netbox/api/dcim/sites/ \
--data '[{"id": 10}, {"id": 11}, {"id": 12}]'
```
