# Delete Sprint Item Endpoint

`DELETE /projects/{project_id}/sprint-items/{item_id}`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://usemeridian.us` (the document declares no server; this is the origin it was published from)
- URL: `https://usemeridian.us/projects/{project_id}/sprint-items/{item_id}`
- Auth: none declared

Delete a sprint item permanently.

8a665a03 -- goes through ``db_module.delete_sprint_item`` so the delete also busts
the sprint-items cache and publishes ``sprint_item_deleted``; the raw DELETE this
route used to run published nothing, which is why the Backburner trash button only
took effect on screen after a reload. Stays idempotent (204 for an unknown id).

## Path parameters

- `project_id` string, required
- `item_id` string, required

## Response `204`

Successful Response

## Other responses

- `422`: Validation Error
