The results list it built and the rows already delivered are KEPT — delete the list separately if you want them gone. Drafts delete immediately. An agent whose run is in progress (`status: processing`) answers 409 AGENT_PROCESSING; wait until it reads `active` or `paused` and retry. Nothing is refunded, and a deleted agent is not recoverable — duplicate it first if you may want it back. Answers 204 with no body. Errors: - `404` `AGENT_NOT_FOUND` — No agent with this id belongs to the token owner. A deleted agent and another user's agent answer identically. - `409` `AGENT_PROCESSING` — A run is in progress (status `processing`); the agent cannot be changed until it settles. Retry once it is `active` or `paused`. - `422` `VALIDATION_FAILED` — The request failed this endpoint's own validation — `param` names the offending field and `message` says why. - `429` `RATE_LIMITED` — The agents bucket is exhausted: 30 requests per minute or 2,000 per day per token owner, shared by every /business/agents operation (a 429 raised by the agents service is relayed with this code too). Retry after the `Retry-After` header. - `500` `UNEXPECTED_ERROR` — The agents service failed (5xx, refused service credential, or a timeout after 60s) or the rate limiter was unavailable. Retry later; quote `request_id` to support. Requires one of the following token scopes: agents. ## OpenAPI ````yaml /openapi.json delete /business/agents/{agentId} openapi: 3.1.0 info: title: Fuse Business API version: 1.0.0 description: >- External API for lists, campaigns, prospect search and contacts.
