Delete an order

DELETE/orders/{id}

Costs 2 rate-limit points · Rate limits

Delete an order from Filemonk, as the order page's Delete does: it leaves the lists and the buyer's download page stops working. The Shopify order is untouched. Destructive: send it first without confirm. Nothing changes and the 409 confirmation_required says what would. Tell the merchant, ask, and resend with confirm: true only after they agree.

Soft delete: the row is kept but no read returns it; importing the order again (POST /orders) restores it. Without confirm: true nothing is deleted: 409 confirmation_required.

Errors

401

Missing or invalid API key.

404

The resource does not exist for this shop, or the action path is not registered.

422

The request failed validation, or sent a key the action does not take (code: "unknown_parameters" with unknown and accepted). Nothing was saved.

429

Rate limited. Cost-weighted per API key, shared with API v1: a read costs 1 point, a write 2, 40 points per fixed 60-second window. Every response carries X-RateLimit-Limit, X-RateLimit-Remaining and X-RateLimit-Reset (Unix time the window ends); a 429 adds Retry-After (seconds), retry_after, retryable: true and a next_step in the body. A 429 did nothing: wait retry_after seconds, then send the same request again. The budget is per key, so every tool or script using the key shares it; prefer one list call with per_page over many single reads.

Every error has the same shape: see Errors.
