Permanent deletion. This operation permanently removes the transcription record and cannot be undone.

Authorization: Bearer <JWT>

​

​
Example Request

curl -X DELETE \
  'https://app.medisync.me/api/transcriptions/665f8a1b2c3d4e5f6789012f3' \
  -H 'Authorization: Bearer <JWT>'

const response = await fetch(
  'https://app.medisync.me/api/transcriptions/665f8a1b2c3d4e5f6789012f3',
  {
    method: 'DELETE',
    headers: {
      'Authorization': 'Bearer <JWT>'
    }
  }
);

const result = await response.json();

import requests

headers = {'Authorization': 'Bearer <JWT>'}

response = requests.delete(
    'https://app.medisync.me/api/transcriptions/665f8a1b2c3d4e5f6789012f3',
    headers=headers
)

result = response.json()

​
Example Response

Success (200)
{
  "success": true
}

​
Error Responses

401 Unauthorized
{
  "success": false,
  "message": "Unauthorized"
}
403 Forbidden (not the owning doctor)
{
  "success": false,
  "error": "Forbidden"
}
404 Transcription Not Found
{
  "success": false,
  "error": "Transcription not found"
}
404 Appointment Not Found
{
  "success": false,
  "error": "Appointment not found"
}
The Unauthorized response uses the message field; handler-level errors use the error field. Unexpected server errors return 500 { "success": false, "error": "<message>" }.

​
Behavior Notes

  • Lookup by appointment: The transcription is located by appointment_id.
  • Ownership: Only the appointment’s owning doctor may delete its transcription; otherwise the request returns 403 Forbidden.
  • Distinct 404s: Transcription not found is returned when no transcription exists for the appointment; Appointment not found is returned when the transcription exists but its appointment does not.
  • Success shape: A successful deletion returns { "success": true } only.
