Usage of /answers/{id}/delete POST

Discussion

Deletes an answer.

Note that only answer owners can delete their answers, this is not equivalent to casting a delete vote. Also be aware that there are conditions when even an answer's owner cannot delete it, and this method will respect those limits.

Use an access_token with write_access to delete an answer.

It is not possible to undelete an answer via the API.

In practice, this method will never return an object.
