Skip to main content
Use this endpoint to permanently delete a FHIR R4 resource through the passthrough gateway. Tenant ownership is verified before deletion proceeds — you can only delete resources that belong to your tenant. This operation is irreversible; consider whether a status update on the resource is more appropriate for your use case.
