Delete a document
Move a document to the trash. It is marked as deleted but not yet removed — restore it, or let the workspace’s trash window purge it.
Works for every status, including COMPLETED. You are the controller of your data; deciding when a signed agreement goes is your call.
Response: Returns the document in the same shape as GET /api/v1/documents/{id}, without fields, with deletedAt set. The list and GET /api/v1/documents/{id} don’t return a document in the trash.
To remove a document immediately and irreversibly, use POST /api/v1/documents/{id}/purge.
Authorizations
Personal API key, e.g. Authorization: Bearer sajn_sk_.... Not scope-limited — acts as the issuing user.
Headers
API version for this request. Without it, the request uses the organization's default version; an organization without a default is pinned to the latest version by its first request.
2026-09, 2026-10 ID of the workspace this request acts in, from GET /api/v1/workspaces. Without it, an API key acts in its default workspace. The token's user must be a member of the workspace; an OAuth token only accepts the workspace it was granted for. A workspace that doesn't exist or can't be reached returns 403 WORKSPACE_ACCESS_DENIED.
Makes retries safe. A retry with the same key and the same request replays the stored response for 24 hours (header Idempotent-Replayed: true); the same key with a different request returns 400.

Array of document parties (signers and other participants).
Content blocks in position order when you pass expand=content, and null otherwise. See the content endpoints for the per-type shapes.
Every product table on the document, resolved: each row carries the recipient's final selected state and quantity, and the totals count the selected rows only. Empty when the document has no product table.
ID of the document's approval request, or null when it has none. To read it, call GET /api/v1/approval-requests/{id}.
ID of the bundle the document was sent in, or null. Every document in a bundle also fires its own events, so this is the key that groups them. To read the bundle, call GET /api/v1/bundles/{id}.
