# Delete a project

`DELETE /api/v2/projects/{projectId}`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://davinci-app.com`
- URL: `https://davinci-app.com/api/v2/projects/{projectId}`
- Auth: HTTP bearer

Soft-deletes the project. Storage is released from the owner's balance and
the project becomes invisible to normal reads; a system administrator can
restore it for a retention window.

## Response `204`

Project deleted.

## Other responses

- `401`: No credential was supplied, or the supplied credential is malformed, expired, or revoked. A credential that is present but unusable is never downgraded to an anonymous request.
- `403`: Authenticated but not authorized. Either the acting user lacks the required resource permission, the key's scope ceiling excludes it, or the endpoint rejects this credential type (`CREDENTIAL_NOT_PERMITTED`).
- `404`: The resource does not exist in the parent named by the path, or is hidden from the caller. Absence and privacy denial are deliberately indistinguishable so project, organization, and private-team existence cannot be probed.
- `429`: Request rate exceeded, either globally or for this key.
- `500`: Unexpected server error.
