Delete a subproject

DELETE

https://{your_space_name}.signalwire.com/api/projects/:id

Deletes a subproject.

Only subprojects can be deleted through this API. Deleting the root/parent project returns 422 only_subprojects_can_be_deleted. A project must have no phone numbers before it can be deleted; otherwise the request returns 422 phone_numbers_must_be_removed.

On a successful delete, the subproject’s registry brands and campaigns are migrated up to the parent project.

Use this operation only for a subproject that is ready to retire. The Compatibility API cannot close an account; its Update account operation only renames one, so deleting the subproject here is the API path for retiring it.

Permissions

The API token used to authenticate must have the following scope(s) enabled to make a successful request: Management.
