Is there a REST command to delete rows from lookup.csv?

is there a REST command to delete rows from the dmc_forwarder_assets.csv? For example, to remove rows where the status=missing or where hostname = a value provided in the REST command?

 

 

Thanks in advance.

There is no such command.  Individual lines in CSV files cannot be removed.  The only way to do it is to read the entire CSV, remove the unwanted lines, and re-write the file.
