Mail

Delete a message

Moves a message to Trash, or deletes it permanently.

DELETE /v1/messages/:id

Permission

The key must be granted mail.messages.write

A key without it gets 403 insufficient_scope, with the missing permission named in details.

Path parameters

Field Type Description
id required string The message to delete.

Request

curl https://api.veruapis.com/v1/messages/:id \
  -X DELETE \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer vak_live_..." \
  -H "Idempotency-Key: $(uuidgen)"

Idempotency-Key is required on every write. Retrying with the same key returns the original response rather than repeating the operation, so a timeout is something you retry rather than something you investigate.

Response

Answers 204.

Returns 204 with no body.

Errors

Every failure uses the same shape, with a stable string code you can branch on. See the error reference.
