# Delete Thread Note

> Delete a note you wrote.

Requires an API key with the `write` scope.

Only a note's author can delete it. For notes added through the API the author is the user who owns the key. The note must belong to a thread in this workspace.

## Path Parameters

<ParamField path="note_id" type="string" required>
  The unique identifier of the note.
</ParamField>

## Response

Returns `{ "data": { "id", "deleted": true } }`.

<RequestExample>
```bash cURL
curl -X DELETE "https://api.foxreach.io/api/v1/inbox/notes/nt_abc123" \
  -H "X-API-Key: otr_your_key"
```

```python Python SDK
from foxreach import FoxReach

client = FoxReach(api_key="otr_your_key")
client.inbox.delete_note("nt_abc123")
```

```typescript TypeScript SDK
import { FoxReach } from "foxreach";

const client = new FoxReach({ apiKey: "otr_your_key" });
await client.inbox.deleteNote("nt_abc123");
```

</RequestExample>

## Rate Limit

- **120 requests per minute, shared by every `write` call in your workspace.** Fixed 60-second window.
- Every response includes `X-RateLimit-Limit`, `X-RateLimit-Remaining`, `X-RateLimit-Reset` (unix epoch seconds) and `X-RateLimit-Bucket` (`write`).
- A `429` response includes a `Retry-After` header (seconds until the bucket resets).
