$client = new \GuzzleHttp\Client();


$response = $client->request('DELETE', 'https://api.ai.wpengine.com/v1/agents/example', [
  'headers' => [
    'Authorization' => 'Bearer <token>',
  ],
]);


echo $response->getBody();

Soft-deletes an agent. The agent and its sessions are marked deleted (excluded from all reads) but retained in storage. Accepts a service-token bearer authenticating a site or an API key, either of which must be authorized for the agent’s project.

403

Section titled “403”

The token is valid, but the caller is not permitted to perform this action — either its scope/permission is insufficient or the authenticated user is not authorized for the target account (error type “permission_error”). On /v1/chat/completions specifically, a 403 with error type “content_policy_violation” instead means the request content was blocked by content moderation policy; that response never identifies which filter or category matched.

429

Section titled “429”

Rate limit exceeded. The request was throttled at the edge; wait and retry later. The response body is a short HTML page generated by the load balancer, not a structured JSON error — clients should rely on the 429 status code rather than parsing the body.

500

Section titled “500”

The server encountered an unexpected error while handling the request. Safe to retry once; if it persists, the cause is server-side and the request payload was not the problem.
