>>> for report in resp.xpath('report'):

Do you only have 10 reports? Because the report ID from the second print output are not the same as the first group. So the first 10 were deleted already. Looks like there is a default filter rows=10 on the get_reports() function. You can try setting the filter rows=100 or a higher number to catch all the reports.

thanks for your remind!
i think i have over ten reports. but the display is restricted to only ten. which makes me carelessly think the delete report not work.
