# Revoke an invitation API Reference

Revokes a `PENDING` invitation, so its acceptance link stops working.

- **Already resolved:** an `ACCEPTED`, `REVOKED` or `EXPIRED` invitation cannot be
  revoked, and answers `404` without disclosing which of the three it is.
- **History:** revoking does not remove the invitation from the list.


## DELETE /v1/accounts/{account_id}/invitations/{invitation_id}

**Revoke an invitation**

Revokes a `PENDING` invitation, so its acceptance link stops working.

- **Already resolved:** an `ACCEPTED`, `REVOKED` or `EXPIRED` invitation cannot be
  revoked, and answers `404` without disclosing which of the three it is.
- **History:** revoking does not remove the invitation from the list.

### Authentication

Accepts any of:

- `ApiKeyAuth` (HTTP bearer, token format `beel_sk_*`)

### Parameters

- **account_id** (required) in path `string`: Your own account, or an account you provisioned. It — not the credential — decides which account the operation acts on; a `403` is returned when you do not reach it, the same response an account that does not exist gets.
- **invitation_id** (required) in path `string`: Identifier (UUID) of an invitation of the account in the path, as returned when it is created or listed. An invitation of another account answers `404`, exactly like one that does not exist.

### Responses

#### 204: Invitation revoked successfully

#### 401: Missing or invalid authentication. Like every other error, `message`/`detail` is
localized according to `Accept-Language` (`es`, `en`, `ca`); defaults to English when the
header is missing or asks for none of those.


**Content `application/json`:**

- **success** (required) `boolean`: No description (example: false)
- **error** (required) `ErrorDetail`
- **meta** `ResponseMeta`
- **type** `string` (uri): Stable URI that identifies the problem type and where the integrator will find its documentation. (example: "https://docs.beel.es/errors/INVOICE_NO_LINES")
- **title** `string`: Short summary of the problem type. Stable between occurrences of the same `type`. (example: "INVOICE_NO_LINES")
- **detail** `string`: Specific message for this occurrence, localized according to `Accept-Language` (`es`, `en`, `ca`); defaults to English. Matches the legacy `error.message`. (example: "The invoice must have at least one line")
- **instance** `string` (uri-reference): URI that identifies the specific occurrence of the problem — typically the path of the affected resource. (example: "/v1/invoices/abc-123")

**Example:**

```json
{
  "success": false,
  "error": {
    "code": "UNAUTHORIZED",
    "message": "Authentication is required to access this resource"
  },
  "meta": {
    "timestamp": "2025-01-15T10:30:00Z",
    "request_id": "4bf92f3577b34da6a3ce929d0e0e4736"
  }
}
```

#### 403: Every cause listed under the plain `403` above, plus the two that govern a change to the people of an account: `MEMBER_MANAGEMENT_FORBIDDEN`, when your role in the account does not manage its members, invitations or grants (only an `OWNER` or an `ADMIN` does), and `LIVE_CREDENTIAL_REQUIRED`, when the call is made with a test API key (`beel_sk_test_…`): members, invitations and grants are shared between Test and Live, so changing them is always a real change. Use your live API key or the dashboard.

**Content `application/json`:**

- **success** (required) `boolean`: No description (example: false)
- **error** (required) `ErrorDetail`
- **meta** `ResponseMeta`
- **type** `string` (uri): Stable URI that identifies the problem type and where the integrator will find its documentation. (example: "https://docs.beel.es/errors/INVOICE_NO_LINES")
- **title** `string`: Short summary of the problem type. Stable between occurrences of the same `type`. (example: "INVOICE_NO_LINES")
- **detail** `string`: Specific message for this occurrence, localized according to `Accept-Language` (`es`, `en`, `ca`); defaults to English. Matches the legacy `error.message`. (example: "The invoice must have at least one line")
- **instance** `string` (uri-reference): URI that identifies the specific occurrence of the problem — typically the path of the affected resource. (example: "/v1/invoices/abc-123")

**Example:**

```json
{
  "success": false,
  "error": {
    "code": "LIVE_CREDENTIAL_REQUIRED",
    "message": "This operation changes the real account; it requires a live API key or a dashboard session."
  },
  "meta": {
    "timestamp": "2025-01-15T10:30:00Z",
    "request_id": "4bf92f3577b34da6a3ce929d0e0e4736"
  }
}
```

#### 404: `PENDING_INVITATION_NOT_FOUND` — no revocable invitation with that id exists in the account. Returned both when the invitation does not exist and when it exists but is not in PENDING state (state is not disclosed). It is a different code from the `INVITATION_NOT_FOUND` of `GET /v1/accounts/{account_id}/invitations/{invitation_id}`, which reads invitations in any state.

**Content `application/json`:**

- **success** (required) `boolean`: No description (example: false)
- **error** (required) `ErrorDetail`
- **meta** `ResponseMeta`
- **type** `string` (uri): Stable URI that identifies the problem type and where the integrator will find its documentation. (example: "https://docs.beel.es/errors/INVOICE_NO_LINES")
- **title** `string`: Short summary of the problem type. Stable between occurrences of the same `type`. (example: "INVOICE_NO_LINES")
- **detail** `string`: Specific message for this occurrence, localized according to `Accept-Language` (`es`, `en`, `ca`); defaults to English. Matches the legacy `error.message`. (example: "The invoice must have at least one line")
- **instance** `string` (uri-reference): URI that identifies the specific occurrence of the problem — typically the path of the affected resource. (example: "/v1/invoices/abc-123")

**Example:**

```json
{
  "success": false,
  "error": {
    "code": "PENDING_INVITATION_NOT_FOUND",
    "message": "No pending invitation with that id in this account."
  },
  "meta": {
    "timestamp": "2025-01-15T10:30:00Z",
    "request_id": "4bf92f3577b34da6a3ce929d0e0e4736"
  }
}
```

  }
}

#### default: Any status code the operation does not list above. Every operation declares it, so a
generated client always has a branch to fall into and never loses the cause of a failure
it did not anticipate.

This is where the transport-level answers land — `405`, `406`, `415` and `429` — together
with any status a future version of the API starts returning. All of them carry the same
error envelope as the codes listed explicitly, so `error.code` is what tells them apart:
switching on the status code alone is not enough. See «Transport-level errors» in the
API description for when each one is produced.

A `502` carrying `EXTERNAL_SERVICE_ERROR` also lands here: an outbound integration the
operation depends on failed or did not answer in time. It is a transient condition — retry
with the same `Idempotency-Key` where the operation accepts one.

One exception to the envelope: a failure of the network edge that never reaches the
application (`502`, `503`, `504`, `524`) is generated by Cloudflare and its body is not
BeeL's — it may not even be JSON. Treat those as "no answer", and retry.

## ErrorResponse

Error response shared by all BeeL. APIs.

The payload carries **two contracts at once** (additive, non-breaking):

- **Legacy** (`success`, `error.{code,message,details}`, `meta`) — kept
  intact for existing consumers.
- **RFC 9457** (`type`, `title`, `detail`, `instance`) — new fields
  for integrators following Problem Details for HTTP APIs. The
  `type` URI is the stable, shareable link to the error's
  documentation page (e.g. `https://docs.beel.es/errors/{code}`).

Future migration: the legacy fields will be deprecated via
`Deprecation`/`Sunset` headers after a sufficient adoption window,
and the response Content-Type will move to
`application/problem+json`.

- **success** (required) `boolean`: No description (example: false)
- **error** (required) `ErrorDetail`
- **meta** `ResponseMeta`
- **type** `string` (uri): Stable URI that identifies the problem type and where the integrator will find its documentation. (example: "https://docs.beel.es/errors/INVOICE_NO_LINES")
- **title** `string`: Short summary of the problem type. Stable between occurrences of the same `type`. (example: "INVOICE_NO_LINES")
- **detail** `string`: Specific message for this occurrence, localized according to `Accept-Language` (`es`, `en`, `ca`); defaults to English. Matches the legacy `error.message`. (example: "The invoice must have at least one line")
- **instance** `string` (uri-reference): URI that identifies the specific occurrence of the problem — typically the path of the affected resource. (example: "/v1/invoices/abc-123")

## ErrorDetail

- **code** (required) `string`: No description (example: "VALIDATION_ERROR")
- **message** (required) `string`: No description (example: "The provided data is not valid")
- **details** `object`: No description (example: {"field":"specific error message"})

## ResponseMeta

- **timestamp** `string` (date-time): No description (example: "2025-01-15T10:30:00Z")
- **request_id** `string`: No description (example: "4bf92f3577b34da6a3ce929d0e0e4736")
