# Bulk Delete Deals

> Delete up to 500 deals in a single call

## Request

Deletion is permanent. Associated activities, notes, and tasks remain on the timeline but lose their deal back-reference. Documents remain available via the document library.

### Headers

```
Authorization: Bearer wbk_your_api_key_here
Content-Type: application/json
```

<ParamField header="Idempotency-Key" type="string">
  Strongly recommended. Same key returns the same result within 24 hours.
</ParamField>

### Body Parameters

<ParamField body="deal_ids" type="array" required>
  Array of deal UUIDs to delete. Maximum 500.
</ParamField>

<ParamField body="dry_run" type="boolean" default="false">
  When `true`, the API validates input and returns counts but makes no changes.
</ParamField>

## Response

<ResponseField name="data" type="object">
  <Expandable title="properties">
    <ResponseField name="deleted_count" type="integer">Deals successfully deleted</ResponseField>
    <ResponseField name="not_found_count" type="integer">Input IDs that did not exist</ResponseField>
    <ResponseField name="errors" type="array">Array of `{ deal_id, code, message }` for rows that failed</ResponseField>
  </Expandable>
</ResponseField>

Responses include `X-RateLimit-Limit`, `X-RateLimit-Remaining`, `X-RateLimit-Reset`, and `X-Request-ID`. Each successful deletion emits a `deal.deleted` webhook event.
