# Deletes a document from a draft contract

`DELETE /draft-contracts/{draft_contract_id}/documents/{document_id}`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.rillet.com`
- URL: `https://api.rillet.com/draft-contracts/{draft_contract_id}/documents/{document_id}`
- Auth: HTTP bearer
- TypeScript: <https://skmtc.dev/rillet/apis/rillet-accounting-api/docs/draft-contracts/:draft_contract_id/documents/:document_id/delete.ts> (a function with typed inputs; its response is checked against the schema)

Removes one attachment from a draft contract. The stored file is deleted unless a contract,
another draft contract or a milestone still uses it, or the file belongs to another part of Rillet.
Works for files uploaded through the API or the Rillet application, or imported from Salesforce.
A file imported from Salesforce stays removed when the draft contract is imported again, unless
a newer version of it is uploaded in Salesforce.

## Response `204`

Document removed

## Other responses

- `400`: Malformed draft contract or document id
- `404`: Draft contract not found or not accessible, or the document is not attached to this draft contract
- `409`: The draft contract changed while the document was being removed; retry the request.
- `default`: Error
