Delete a report
Deletes a report. By default it goes to the trash: it leaves every listing and every plan count, its key stops resolving and its share link stops working, and /v1/reports/restore brings it back with its original type for 7 days. /v1/reports/trash lists what is in there. Sending permanent: true deletes the report for good instead, with its sections and its widgets, and that cannot be undone. The scheduled deliveries of the report are deleted either way and a restore does not recreate them. This endpoint ALWAYS asks for a confirmation, in both forms: the first call answers HTTP 200 with confirmation_required, a token and a preview counting what would go; the same body sent again with that token performs the deletion. A report that a portal view or a template_based report still depends on is refused with 409 REPORT_IN_USE and details naming them, so they can be detached first; an entry of that list that is itself in the trash says so with in_trash. A report already in the trash is refused with 409 REPORT_IN_TRASH unless the call carries permanent: true. A report whose scheduled delivery is being sent right now is refused with 409 SCHEDULE_QUEUED and is worth retrying in a few minutes. A retry with the same idempotency_key answers the original call even if the report changed state in between; read /v1/reports/get for its current state. Refusals: 400 for the framework and the body, 403 WRITE_ACCESS_DISABLED, 404 NOT_FOUND, 409 REPORT_IN_USE, REPORT_IN_TRASH or SCHEDULE_QUEUED plus the confirmation and idempotency conflicts. if_version is not accepted: there is no version left to guard.
Every write endpoint reads dry_run and idempotency_key; see the Write guarantees section of the introduction.
