When performing an API call to delete a field in an app, the field is deleted at the template level. However the delete_values parameters is not doing the job when setting it up to true

## my python code using the requests library
url = 'https://api.podio.com/app/16200981/field/125619360'
data = {'delete_values': True}
request = requests.delete(url, headers=self._get_headers(), data=data)

The call is a success with a response body

{"revision": 29}

However none of the item's values for this field are deleted.

The "delete_values" parameter has to be in the URL and not in the body.

https://api.podio.com/app/16200981/field/125619360?delete_values=true

so the code

url = 'https://api.podio.com/app/16200981/field/125619360'
data = {'delete_values': True}
request = requests.delete(url, headers=self._get_headers(), params=data)
