# Delete a task

`DELETE /v3/tasks/{id}`

<small>_Requires the `tasks:write` scope (or a broader one that includes it)._</small>

Deletes a single task by ID. Returns 204 on success.

## Path parameters

- `id` integer, required

## Response `204`

Task deleted successfully. The response body is empty.

- unknown

## Other responses

- `400` — Route parameter validation failed, or the task is in a state that prevents deletion. The conflict variant (`cannotDelete`) surfaces here at 400 via the fallback `task.unknown` code rather than 409.
- `401` — Unauthorized. The response body is empty; check the `WWW-Authenticate` header for the expected scheme.
- `403` — User lacks required feature scope to delete this task
- `404` — Task does not exist, or the caller does not have permission to delete it.
- `429` — Too Many Requests
