Revoke a credential

Credentials module

POST/credentials/{id}/revokecredentials.revoke

Revokes the credential; scans after revocation are refused. Requires `Idempotency-Key`; a replay returns the original response. A rule that refuses the request returns 422 with `refusal` and `reason`.

  • Requires the capability credentials.credential.revoke.
  • OAuth scopes: credentials.
  • Send an Idempotency-Key header. A replay with the same key returns the original response.
  • Error statuses: 400, 401, 404, 409, 422, 429. Errors are RFC 9457 problem details.
