# Delete affiliate link

`DELETE /links`

Permanently deletes an affiliate link, identified by either `id` or its `link` slug.

Clicks, referrals and sales already attributed to the link are kept — their link reference is simply cleared. Any referral URL using this slug stops tracking immediately. Fires the `affiliate.updated` webhook for the link's former owner.

## Request body

- AffiliateLinkDelete — Supply either `id` or `link`.
  - `id` string, uuid — The affiliate link to delete. Required unless `link` is supplied.
  - `link` string — The slug of the link to delete. Required unless `id` is supplied.

## Response `200`

The affiliate link was deleted.

- object
  - `message` string — Confirmation message
  - `deletedLink` object — The link that was removed
    - `id` string, uuid — The deleted affiliate link ID
    - `link` string — The deleted link slug

## Other responses

- `400` — Neither `id` nor `link` was supplied.
- `401` — The `Authorization` header is missing, is not a `Bearer` header, or the token is not valid.
- `403` — API access is not enabled for this account.
