Delete post

DELETE
/v1/accounts/{accountId}/posts/{postId}
curl --request DELETE \
--url https://api-v1.tailwind.ai/v1/accounts/example/posts/example \
--header 'Authorization: Bearer <token>'

Delete a post that has not been sent yet. Posts already published to Pinterest cannot be deleted through Tailwind. A 404 means either that the account is unknown or is not yours — the two are deliberately indistinguishable, so that account IDs cannot be enumerated — or that the post itself does not exist, which includes a deleted post that has since been purged — deletion is a soft delete readable for at least 28 days before it becomes eligible for automatic purge.
