We have expanded the central Bulk Operations engine to include a secure Delete Site operation. This tool enables authorized account holders and administrators to safely decommission multiple site environments, remove server data, and release associated licenses within a single background run.

Updates & Navigation

• Delete Site Command: Integrated a batch decommissioning operation that permanently purges site files, databases, and platform configurations, automatically releasing any active add-on licenses.
• Double-Blind Confirmation Mechanism: Enforces both client-side and server-side validation requiring the literal string entry DELETE prior to request dispatch.
• Permission & State Scoping: Restricts site selection menus exclusively to properties owned by the user or where delete-site privileges exist, limited to properties in live, disabled, or failed-restore states.
• Bypass & Conflict Protection: Automatically skips and logs properties with active dependencies (such as domain-level active email orders) or ongoing removal tasks without interrupting the broader batch job.
• Non-Restorable Safeguards: Deletion actions are permanent and executed independently per site; bulk restoration mechanisms are intentionally excluded to protect data integrity.

How to get started 

Log into MyPressable, navigate to the Tools > Bulk Operations panel, select Delete Site, choose eligible target properties, complete the typed confirmation prompt, and initiate the batch process.

We have introduced new read-only endpoints and data fields to the Pressable API. These additions expose real-time backup restoration progress logs and uniform network identification attributes directly to developer API integrations and custom automation scripts.

Updates & Navigation

• New Restore Progress Endpoints: Added two read-only endpoints to track backup states:
  • GET /v1/sites/<site_id>/restores – Returns a paginated, chronological list of every restore run on the target site (newest first).
  • GET /v1/sites/<site_id>/restores/<restore_id> – Pulls the status and logs for a singular restore event.
• Live Status Log Payloads: Restore queries now return an active status string (in_progress, completed, or failed) along with a logMessages array displaying sequential runtime lines.
• Supported Monitoring Cadence: Status tracking relies on a polling mechanism of the newest entry on the list endpoint; direct webhooks are not utilized for this data layer.
• v2 API Schema Expansion: Added the multisiteSupport boolean flag (true/false) to the v2 site details payload, standardizing network type verification across API versions.
• Scoped Access Rules: The new tracking capabilities map directly to existing API tokens, requiring active sites_read or sites_edit permission scopes.
