}Delete a Reason
Deletes one of the caller’s named Reasons, as Delete in the Reason app does: it leaves every Reason list, its Loops are deleted so nothing scheduled or triggered runs for it, its own Slack app is removed, and its conversation is archived with its history. The Sessions it started stay where they are. Nothing restores it. Only its owner deletes it, and the main Reason is never deleted (409 main_reason_kept). archiveReason is the same operation under its older name.

}Authorizations
Your Reason API key from Settings › API keys. New keys use reason_; legacy ara_ keys remain accepted. Keys are capability-scoped: run, mcp:read, mcp:write, secrets:read, secrets:write, sessions:read, sessions:debug, knowledge:read, memory:read, memory:write, skills:read, skills:write, repos:read, repos:write, reviews:read, reviews:write, deployment:read, analytics:read, org:read, org:write, attachments:read, attachments:write, guardrails:read, guardrails:write, network:read, network:write, automations:read, automations:write, agent_auth:read. network:read and network:write are opt-in, excluded from default keys. network:read reads the saved workspace network policy; network:write replaces custom allowed hosts and requires a current organization owner/admin. Legacy project PATCH requests containing network_allowed_hosts also require network:write plus their existing run scope and project management permission; saved project hosts do not affect current session egress. Only owners/admins can mint or manage keys with network:write; keys cannot grant themselves more authority. See /docs/network-policies for replacement semantics and runtime applicability. mcp:write manages MCP server configuration only; it does not authorize remote MCP-tool execution. sessions:read reads sessions, including the assistant, reasoning and tool activity in their events. sessions:debug is privileged: only for organization owners/admins, it expands session events to the full diagnostic projection (diagnostic event kinds, status text and raw event metadata).
Path Parameters
Organization id or slug. Resolve it with GET /v3/self.
The Reason id, returned as id by listReasons and createReason.
Response
Deleted.
