templates.delete

Delete a saved template

DELETE/templates/{id}

Operation
templates.delete
MCP tool
templates_delete

Remove one of this account's templates. Renders already made with it are untouched — their settings were fixed when they were created — and a render in flight that named it is unaffected for the same reason. Answers { deleted: true } rather than an empty 204: a body a client can parse is one fewer special case.

curl 'https://api.gogoscreen.com/api/v1/templates/3f2b0c1a-9d4e-4a61-b8c2-000000000012' \
  -X DELETE \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $GOGOSCREEN_API_KEY" \

200 response, captured from a real call. Ids, timestamps and signed URLs are replaced; the shape is untouched.

Response

Answers 200. Every answer also carries RateLimit-Limit, RateLimit-Remaining and RateLimit-Reset, and every error body carries a requestId.

Errors

Every refusal is { error: { code, message, details?, requestId } }. Branch on code, never on the sentence. The full catalogue is at Errors.

CodeStatusWhen it happensWhat to do
idempotency_key_required400A mutating operation arrived over HTTP with no Idempotency-Key header. It is refused before the body is parsed, so a caller missing both learns about both at once.Add an Idempotency-Key header of up to 128 characters, unique to this request. Over MCP the same value goes in the idempotencyKey tool argument.
validation_failed400The merged path, query and body did not match the operation's schema. The schemas are strict, so an unknown field is a failure rather than something ignored, and a string carrying half of a character is refused before it can be stored.Read details.issues. Each entry carries a path, a message and a machine readable code. Fix every named field and send the request again; the same body always fails the same way.
unauthorized401No credential was presented, or the key is unknown, revoked or expired, or an X-API-Key header carried something that is not an API key. details.reason says which.Send Authorization: Bearer gsk_live_…. A revoked or expired key never starts working again, so issue a new one in the developer console. Put a dashboard session token in Authorization, never in X-API-Key.
forbidden_scope403The credential does not carry every scope the operation declares, or it is the wrong kind of credential for it. keys.* and assistant.* are user only and can never be called by a key.details.requiredScopes and details.missingScopes name what is missing. A key's scopes cannot be changed after it is issued, so create a new key with them. When details.allowedActors is present, no key can call this operation at all.
not_found404No resource of that id belongs to this account. A resource that belongs to somebody else answers 404 as well, never 403.Check the id. Do not treat this as a permissions problem.
template_not_found404No saved template of that id belongs to this account.Check the id, or list the account's templates.
conflict409The request conflicts with the state the resource is in, and no more specific code applies.Re-read the resource and decide from its current state. Retrying the same request unchanged will not help.
idempotency_conflict409That idempotency key has already been used on this operation with a different request body.Use a fresh key for a different request. A key stands for one intent, not for one attempt.
idempotency_in_progress409The first request under that key is still being worked. Two concurrent identical requests both reach the store and one of them is told this.Wait the Retry-After seconds, which is 2, and send exactly the same request again with the same key. Do not change the body and do not mint a new key.
rate_limited429The credential's per minute budget, the account's per minute ceiling, or a daily cap was exceeded. details.scope is minute, day or account, or global when the product's own daily cap on voice previews is spent.Wait the Retry-After seconds and retry. details.limit and details.resetAt say what was hit and when it reopens. The RateLimit-* headers on every answer let a client pace itself before it gets here.
internal_error500An unhandled failure inside this API. The original message is logged and never answered.Retry once, then quote requestId to support. A 5xx deletes the idempotency claim rather than storing it, so retrying under the same key is safe.
