01Run it

Straight from the command's own help.

p202 ppc-network variable delete 3 7 --dry-run
p202 ppc-network variable delete 3 7 --force

02What you get

Pick the shape you need. People get a table. Add --json, --csv or --ndjson for scripts, or -q for ids only. An AI agent gets compact JSON without asking. All output formats

03Build your command

Pick values and the command line writes itself, quoted and ready to paste.

p202 ppc-network variable delete

Set flags below; the command updates as you type.

04Flags

3 flags, plus the global flags every command takes.

FlagWhat it does
--dry-runboolPreview what the delete would remove (record + cascade counts) without deleting
--force, -fboolSkip confirmation prompt
--idsstringComma-separated variable IDs to delete in bulk

05How it works

Retires the variable, as the Setup dialog does: new tracking links stop carrying it, and clicks already recorded with it keep their values.

06For agents

Running this from an agent

  • Read the same facts as JSON: p202 commands ppc-network variable delete --json.
  • With AI_AGENT, CLAUDECODE or another agent variable set, output is compact JSON and errors arrive on stderr as a JSON envelope with a hint.
  • Exit codes: 0 ok, 1 bad input, 2 auth, 3 network, 4 server error, 5 partial failure.
  • This command writes. Add --staged to record it as a proposal a person applies with p202 change apply.
