webex: deleteDevice status %d
Error message
webex: deleteDevice status %d
What it means
The DELETE against the WDM device URL returned a status other than the accepted success set (200, 204, 202). It means the device deregistration was not acknowledged — typically 401/403 auth issues, 404 for an already-deleted device, or a server error. The function treats empty deviceURL as a no-op, so this only fires for a real URL.

Solutions
- Treat 404 as success (device already gone) by adding it to the accepted status set or handling it at the call site
- For 401/403, refresh the bot token and retry once
- Log the status and body to identify WDM-side rejections
- On 5xx, retry with backoff; device deletion is idempotent so a repeat call is safe
