Errors

Status	Meaning	Body
`404`	Library not found	`{"message":"No query results for model [App\\Models\\KnowledgeBase] <id>."}`
`404`	Document not found, or it does not belong to that library	`{"message":"No query results for model [App\\Models\\KnowledgeArticle] <id>."}`
`403`	Policy denied — outside your organization, or you cannot write to this resource	`{"message":"This action is unauthorized."}`

Notes

The document is only deleted from the database after it is successfully removed from search indexes/mirrors — a failure there leaves the document intact so it can be retried.
