Scrub a contact

Scrubs the sensitive data of a specific contact.

You can use this operation to replace all sensitive data in a contact and its related contact snapshot with dummy values that will be stored in Zuora databases.

After scrubbing a contact, it is good practice to delete it. Otherwise, it might cause errors in subsequent operations.

Note: To use this operation, you must ensure that the "Scrub Sensitive Data of Contact" billing permission is enabled in your user role. Contact your tenant administrator if you want to enable this permission. See Scrub Contacts for more information.

Request
path Parameters
contactId
required
string

The ID of the contact that you want to scrub sensitive data from.

header Parameters
Accept-Encoding
string

Include the Accept-Encoding: gzip header to compress responses as a gzipped file. It can significantly reduce the bandwidth required for a response.

If specified, Zuora automatically compresses responses that contain over 1000 bytes of data, and the response contains a Content-Encoding header with the compression algorithm so that your client can decompress it.

Content-Encoding
string

Include the Content-Encoding: gzip header to compress a request. With this header specified, you should upload a gzipped file for the request payload instead of sending the JSON payload.

Authorization
string

The value is in the Bearer {token} format where {token} is a valid OAuth token generated by calling Create an OAuth token.

Zuora-Entity-Ids
string

An entity ID. If you have Zuora Multi-entity enabled and the OAuth token is valid for more than one entity, you must use this header to specify which entity to perform the operation in. If the OAuth token is only valid for a single entity, or you do not have Zuora Multi-entity enabled, you do not need to set this header.

Zuora-Track-Id
string <= 64 characters

A custom identifier for tracing the API call. If you set a value for this header, Zuora returns the same value in the response headers. This header enables you to associate your system process identifiers with Zuora API calls, to assist with troubleshooting in the event of an issue.

The value of this field must use the US-ASCII character set and must not include any of the following characters: colon (:), semicolon (;), double quote ("), and quote (').
