Unable to delete Geo category with REST API

REST
1

I’m trying to delete an existing Geo category that doesn’t have any geo points and the response is
{“collection”:{“data”:[],“totalObjects”:0,“offset”:0}}

The category isn’t deleted.

2

Also I receive this same response if the Geo category doesn’t exist instead of receiving an error message.

Roy, I can not reproduce any of these issues. Please, check your requests.
http://backendless.com/documentation/geo/rest/geo_removing_a_geo_category.htm

curl 
-H application-id:<id>
-H secret-key:<key>
-H application-type:REST
-X DELETE -v [url=http://api.backendless.com/v1/geo/categories/foobarcategory]http://api.backendless.com/v1/geo/categories/foobarcategory[/url]

Regards,
Kate.

This still holds true as a problem.

I just tried the curl request which Kate posted earlier and it worked as expected for me.

I am still getting this problem to occcur.

The Geo Category is successfully updated and the response data returned is:
{“objectId”:“4542A93E-5FFD-6DA4-FFA0-8119A9FDF100”,“name”:“NewCat_0”,“size”:0}

Then I attempt to delete the same Geo Category and I get a response of:
{“objectId”:“4542A93E-5FFD-6DA4-FFA0-8119A9FDF100”,“name”:“NewCat_0”,“size”:0}

The headers for the Delete category call are:
application-id: C45325…
secret-key: F9383…
user-token: B343989
application-type: REST

Can you show the complete request you use for deletion? That is include not just headers, but URL, HTTP method, content type (if any), body (if any).

I found my problem. The HTTP verb buffer was empty where it should have been “DELETE”.

Sorry for taking your time on this problem… Thanks for the help
