Remove a column from a vault

Remove a column from a vault's table.

The values already extracted under the column's field_key stay stored, so a new column created with the same field_key shows them again. Nothing is re-scanned either way.

Only a custom column can be removed. A system column (Document Name, Document Status, Document Title) returns 400, and a built-in column has no ID to address. A column a connected spreadsheet owns comes off when you remove the sheet in the app.

Requires the editor or owner role in the vault and the organization-level permission to manage vaults.

Requires a user-scoped API key (u:gcai_...). A vault is shared with named people, so an organization-scoped key has no identity to resolve vault access with.
