## When to Dismiss Tasks

Use dismiss when:

* The task is no longer relevant
* You want to do it manually instead
* The task parameters are incorrect
* You're testing and want to clean up pending tasks

<Note>
  Dismissed tasks cannot be re-approved. If you change your mind, ask Lexi to create a new task.
</Note>

## Dismiss Reasons (Analytics)

Common reasons tracked for analytics:

| Reason             | Use Case              |
| ------------------ | --------------------- |
| `not_relevant`     | Task no longer needed |
| `manual_execution` | Will do it manually   |
| `incorrect_params` | Wrong search criteria |
| `duplicate`        | Task already exists   |
| `testing`          | Test/development task |

## Example: Review and Dismiss Pattern

```python theme={null}
# Get all pending tasks
response = requests.get(
    f"{BASE_URL}/v1/lexi/tasks",
    headers=headers,
    params={"status": "pending"}
)

tasks = response.json()["data"]["tasks"]

for task in tasks:
    print(f"\nTask: {task['description']}")
    print(f"Type: {task['type']}")
    print(f"Created: {task['created_at']}")
    
    # Prompt user for action
    action = input("Approve (a), Dismiss (d), or Skip (s)? ")
    
    if action == 'a':
        requests.post(
            f"{BASE_URL}/v1/lexi/tasks/{task['id']}/approve",
            headers=headers
        )
        print("✓ Approved")
    elif action == 'd':
        reason = input("Reason for dismissing? ")
        requests.post(
            f"{BASE_URL}/v1/lexi/tasks/{task['id']}/dismiss",
            headers=headers,
            json={"reason": reason}
        )
        print("✓ Dismissed")
```

## Bulk Dismiss

Dismiss multiple tasks at once:

```python theme={null}
def dismiss_all_pending_tasks():
    """Dismiss all pending tasks (e.g., for cleanup)"""
    response = requests.get(
        f"{BASE_URL}/v1/lexi/tasks",
        headers=headers,
        params={"status": "pending"}
    )
    
    tasks = response.json()["data"]["tasks"]
    
    for task in tasks:
        requests.post(
            f"{BASE_URL}/v1/lexi/tasks/{task['id']}/dismiss",
            headers=headers,
            json={"reason": "bulk_cleanup"}
        )
        print(f"Dismissed: {task['description']}")
```

## Errors

| Status | Code                       | Description                     |
| ------ | -------------------------- | ------------------------------- |
| 400    | `validation_error`         | Task is not in `pending` status |
| 401    | `invalid_key`              | Invalid API key                 |
| 403    | `insufficient_permissions` | Missing `lexi` permission       |
| 404    | `not_found`                | Task not found                  |
| 429    | `rate_limited`             | Rate limit exceeded             |

### Example Error (Already Dismissed)

```json theme={null}
{
  "error": {
    "code": "validation_error",
    "message": "Task has already been dismissed"
  }
}
```
