Delete generated asset

Removes a generated asset and its associated project metadata.

DEL

https://api.novaai.com/v1/assets/{asset_id}

Authentication

Send a project-scoped NovaAI API key in the Authorization header using the Bearer scheme. Requests without valid credentials return 401 Unauthorized.

Authorization

string

required

Request properties

asset_id

string

required

Identifier of the asset to remove.

idempotency_key

string

optional

Optional value for safe retries.

reason

string

optional

Optional audit note for the deletion.

Response behavior

A successful DEL request returns a structured NovaAI resource response. Validate the returned identifier before persisting it, and handle 400 Bad Request for malformed input or 401 Unauthorized for invalid project credentials.

Integration notes

Use DEL /v1/assets/{asset_id} from a trusted server environment. Keep your NovaAI API key out of browser bundles and pass only the data required for delete generated asset in each request.

Validate inputs before sending the request, log the returned request identifier for troubleshooting, and use exponential backoff for temporary failures or rate-limit responses. Treat malformed payloads and authorization failures as non-retryable until corrected.

Error handling

Inspect the error type and code returned by NovaAI before retrying. Correct invalid parameters for 400 responses, refresh or replace credentials for 401 responses, and wait before retrying requests that are temporarily limited.
