Delete Export Template

Delete an export template by (type, id). The response includes the full deleted object for local audit or to re-create on undo.

Endpoint

POST {BASE_URL}/api/open/v1/export-templates/delete

Authentication Headers

Same as Create Translation Task. The raw POST body participates in the signature: MD5(timestamp + raw_body + appSecret).

Request Body (JSON)

{
  "type": "project_strings",
  "id": "tpl-9d3f1a2c"
}

Field	Type	Required	Description
type	string	Yes	Template type: project_strings / task_strings
id	string	Yes	ID of the template to delete

Response

  "success": true,
  "code": 0,
  "msg": "ok",

    }
  }
}

deleted is the pre-deletion template object (same shape as Get Export Template).

Behavior

• Deletion does not auto-promote another template to default — having zero is_default=true templates per type is allowed.
• Two concurrent "delete same id" requests are safe: the second one gets a 404 (the first already removed it).
• Deletion is irreversible — to undo, take the deleted object from the response and call Create Export Template (note: the new template will get a new id).

Error Codes

code	Description
400	Body is not valid JSON / type missing or invalid / id missing
401	Signature invalid / timestamp expired
403	App Secret not configured
404	No template found for the given id (a wrong type also yields 404)
500	Write failed or internal error
