Delete task

Remove a task from the Action Hub plan entirely. Deleting a completed task that tracks a topic_content_opportunity re-promotes the source opportunity if it had gone stale, so it can be re-added later.


DELETE /brands/{brand_id}/tasks/{task_id}

Authorization

Header	Type	Required
`Authorization`	`Bearer asky_sk_…`	required
`Idempotency-Key`	`string`	required on every write. See Idempotency

Path parameters

`task_id`	`uuid`	required	A task’s id, visible in the app’s Action Hub (`/actions/plan`)
