Delete project
Starts deletion of the identified project using a credential authorized for project management. Inspect the documented response and use getProjectClosureStatus with the organization and project identifiers to read closure progress. A project API key is not an accepted credential for this operation.
Authorizations
Account Service Key, prefixed with pho_ask_, sent as Authorization: Bearer <key>. Acts on behalf of its owning account, subject to the permissions and credential restrictions of each operation. Account access tokens and OAuth grants also use the Bearer header. In organizations that require SSO, Account Service Keys are not accepted for managing the organization's SSO settings, deleting the organization, or checking whether it can be deleted.
Headers
Identifies one logical mutation across retries.
