# Delete contact

> Soft-delete a contact and stop future dial/send.

Marks the contact skipped/deleted. Emits `contact.cancelled` when tenant webhooks are configured in **API Access → Notifications**.


## OpenAPI

````yaml DELETE /api/v1/contacts/{id}
openapi: 3.0.3
info:
  title: Ondial Public API
  version: 1.0.0
  description: >-
    Tenant API-key surface for lead ingest, contacts (including dial
    conversation + analysis), events, inbound agents, company profiles, and
    knowledge-base documents.


    **Campaign definition is UI-only** — create and start an API-ingest campaign
    in the dashboard, then push leads here.


    **Auth:** `Authorization: Bearer ond_live_…` or `ond_test_…` (or
    `X-API-Key`). Keys are requested in **API Access** with a friendly **key
    name**, then approved by Super Admin (not self-serve). Tenants can rename
    keys later without rotating the secret.


    **Scopes:** Company and knowledge-base routes require opt-in scopes
    (`companies:read`, `companies:write`, `knowledge:read`, `knowledge:write`)
    granted at key approval. Missing scope → `403 forbidden`.


    **Sandbox** keys never place PSTN dials or live WhatsApp/email and do not
    burn credits (KB upload skips debit).


    **Security:** Company responses never include SMTP/WhatsApp credentials. KB
    v1 is metadata-only — no file download.


    **Kill switch:** Super Admin can disable all `/api/v1/*` (`503` /
    `api_globally_disabled`) without stopping UI CSV campaigns.


    **Compliance:** Call channel requires `consent.outboundCall: true` and phone
    not on tenant/platform DNC.
