Delete a lead or remove it from a campaign

DELETE/v1/leads/{lead_id}
Scope: leads:write

With the campaign_id query parameter, removes the lead from that campaign and leaves its record unchanged; a lead that isn't enrolled there answers 404 LEAD_NOT_IN_CAMPAIGN.

Without campaign_id, deletes the lead itself. Its personal and company data is erased in place and it disappears from every read, while an anonymised row remains as the record of the activity that happened.

Omitting campaign_id deletes the lead, not just an enrolment, and the erasure can't be undone. To take a lead out of one campaign, always send campaign_id.
