How to delete an envelope from the docusign api?

Question

I am using an esignature api.

I want to delete the envelope using the esignature api.

The deletion was not found in EnvelopesApi.

Can you please share why you want to delete an envelope, and are you planning to delete Draft or sent envelope? — Amit K Bist

You can use the Envelopes: update API to Void envelopes which will make it so no one can sign and invalidate the transaction.

PUT /v2/accounts/{accountId}/envelopes/{envelopeId}

{
    "status":"voided",
    "voidedReason":"voided for incorrect recipient"
}

By default DocuSign envelopes are stored in your account for 2 years I believe, however if you want you can Purge any given envelope which will remove it forever. To purge a document you can use the same API as above.
