# Delete multiple images by IDs

DELETE https://api.fiftytwo.com/masterdata/images/v1/chain/{chain}

Deletes multiple images metadata for the specified chain in a single request. Each imageId is an MD5 hash (32 character hex string).
The operation returns which images were successfully deleted and which were not found.

The physical image files are only deleted when there are no metadata records left across ALL chains for the customer.

**Example Request:**

```
DELETE /images/v1/chain/1?ids=7af0a3950a162be27488d0c1f292f9ab,b1234567890abcdef1234567890abcde
```

**Example Response:**

```json
{
  "deletedIds": ["7af0a3950a162be27488d0c1f292f9ab"],
  "notFoundIds": ["b1234567890abcdef1234567890abcde"]
}
