DELETE
/api/public/v1/invoices/{invoiceId}Delete an invoice
Permanently removes an invoice — the one delete in this API that is not soft. Only a VOIDED invoice qualifies: voiding is the reversible step, and deleting is for clearing a mistake that should never have existed. Anything live has to be voided first.
Required scope
The access token must carry this scope. A token missing it gets 403 Forbidden. Grant them to an API client under Settings → Company → API, and to a teammate under Employee → Permissions.
