This topic explains how to delete videos. The examples below show you how to delete all of the available videos or how to delete only a specific video by its ID.
NOTE: The code examples below work with the ID of the master version of the video. Deleting the master version also deletes the other versions of the item. For more information about doing this using the ID of the live version, see For developers: Delete content.
When deleting a specific video by the ID of its master version, you must perform the following:
Get the video.
First, get an instance of the master version with the corresponding ID.
Delete the video.
Mark the master version to be deleted and save the changes.
The following code deletes a video by the ID of its master version.

Fluent API
