Delete a board

Delete a board. This will not delete the generations made on it.

On this page

Deletes the board itself. Deleting takes more than edit access, so a caller who can rename a board cannot always remove it.

Response

204 No Content. The board answers 404 BOARD_NOT_FOUND from then on, and stops appearing in List boards within about 20 seconds, the time that listing takes to catch up.

Generations made on it are not deleted and stay in Library. They keep the board_id of the deleted board, so a saved filter still finds them. A deleted board no longer grants a whole-board read, though: from then on that filter returns your own generations, or every member's with scope=all.

Errors

Status codes

401TOKEN_INVALID
Missing or invalid credential.
403PERMISSION_DENIED
You can see the board but may not delete it. Editing is the looser rule, so this can happen where the same caller's edit succeeds.
404BOARD_NOT_FOUND
No such board, or not one this credential can see.
429RATE_LIMITED
Too many requests. Board writes have a tighter budget than reads. See Rate limits.
