# Delete a location

> Deletes a location.

Locations may be deleted regardless of remaining stock; transactions that referenced the deleted location stay readable, but the embedded `to_location` / `from_location` will report `deleted: true`.

`DELETE https://rest.boxhero-app.com/v1/locations/{location_id}`

## Autorisierung

- `Authorization` (string, erforderlich): Bearer-Authentifizierungsheader im Format `Bearer <token>`, wobei `<token>` Ihr [API-Token](https://www.boxhero.io/docs/de/developers/api/authentication) ist.

## Pfadparameter

- `location_id` (integer, minimum 0, maximum 2147483647, erforderlich)

## Antworten

**200** The location has been deleted.

**400** Team is not in LOCATION mode.

- `id` (string, erforderlich): Unique exception id (`ex_` followed by 32 lowercase hex chars, no dashes — e.g. `ex_8f5c0c8e0e0a4a3c9b3f4f2c4f6c8d2a`). Quote this in support tickets so we can find the request in our logs.
- `type` (string, erforderlich): Stable, machine-readable error code (RFC 7807-style URI fragment). Branch your error handling on this, not on `title`.

  Mögliche Werte: `/errors/not-found`, `/errors/invalid-request`, `/errors/invalid-team-mode`, `/errors/tokens/invalid`, `/errors/tokens/required`, `/errors/too-many-requests`, `/errors/core/usage-limit-exceeded`, `/errors/core/forbidden`, `/errors/core/unhandled`, `/errors/unhandled`
- `title` (string, erforderlich): Human-readable summary of the error, in English.
- `correlationID` (string, erforderlich): Request correlation id (`rq_` followed by 32 lowercase hex chars, no dashes — e.g. `rq_01abf3...`). Identical to the `X-Correlation-Id` response header. Pass an `X-Correlation-Id` request header to thread your trace through to ours.
- `instance` (string, erforderlich): Pointer to the specific failing resource (e.g. `/items/12345`). Path-only, no `/v1` version prefix.
- `code` (string): Sub-reason code surfaced from upstream BoxHero core (on core-mapped 4xx) or from the gateway itself (e.g. `not-available-for-api-token` on 403). Use this for fine-grained branching after dispatching on `type`.
- `errors` (array of object): Field-level error details. Present on `/errors/invalid-request` (400) responses. Each entry locates a single failure via JSONPath-like `path` segments and a human-readable `message`.

  - `path` (array of string | number, erforderlich)
  - `message` (string, erforderlich)

**401** Missing or invalid API token.

- `id` (string, erforderlich): Unique exception id (`ex_` followed by 32 lowercase hex chars, no dashes — e.g. `ex_8f5c0c8e0e0a4a3c9b3f4f2c4f6c8d2a`). Quote this in support tickets so we can find the request in our logs.

- `title` (string, erforderlich): Human-readable summary of the error, in English.

  - `path` (array of string | number, erforderlich)
  - `message` (string, erforderlich)

**429** Rate limit exceeded. Check `RateLimit`, `Retry-After`, and `X-RateLimit-*` response headers before retrying.

- `id` (string, erforderlich): Unique exception id (`ex_` followed by 32 lowercase hex chars, no dashes — e.g. `ex_8f5c0c8e0e0a4a3c9b3f4f2c4f6c8d2a`). Quote this in support tickets so we can find the request in our logs.
