Delete Contact

Permanently delete a contact from your Splashify Pro workspace, along with its conversations and message history. Useful for honouring data-deletion / GDPR / DPDP requests from your own system.

Warning: This is a hard delete — the contact, its conversations, and its messages are removed and cannot be restored. To temporarily hide a contact instead, archive it from the app UI.

Implementation tips

• Idempotency — a second delete for the same contact returns 404. Treat 404 as “already deleted” rather than an error in cleanup jobs.
• Prefer contact_id when you have it — it’s a direct lookup and avoids any ambiguity when two contacts share a number across channels.
