/services/v2/user/{user-id}/deleteAllPosts.json

The purpose of this API is to allow for the bulk deletion of all content published (and held in moderation) for a particular user. This parallels the capability for moderators to bulk delete all content for a given user from the moderation queues or from the user's profile page.

🚧
Permissions & Notes:

The user making this call must have the "delete any permission" for the content, so it is assumed that a moderator will be making this call. Delete any question, Delete any answer, Delete any comment, Delete any question/answer/comment. As of this release, no discrete delete permissions are present for ideas and articles, so they will be governed by the above permissions.

This functionality was added in the 2.21.0 Release
