# Delete an assessment

> Deletes one of your assessments in the environment of your key, with its versions, evidence and outcomes. An abuse outcome you reported on it stops counting toward other assessments. Afterwards `GET /v1/assessments/{assessment_id}` answers 404 and the assessment leaves the account's history.

The account is scored again from what remains. The answer names the account and `current_assessment_id`, the assessment its current risk now comes from; it is absent when the account has no assessment with a decision left, and `GET /v1/accounts/{account_id}` then answers 404.

An unknown, expired or already deleted assessment answers 404, so a repeat answers 404. No webhook event is sent; to erase a whole account, use `DELETE /v1/accounts/{account_id}`. Requires the `history` scope.

  title: NoResponse API
  version: '1'
  description: >-
    The NoResponse API assesses a signup, login or purchase and answers with the
    account's one current risk: a 0 to 100 score, a decision for the flow
    (`allow`, `step_up`, `review` or `block`), the reasons behind it and the
    decision for each flow. The assessment's own facts, such as its status,
    confidence and incomplete sources, sit under `detail`.


    Authenticate every request with your API key as `Authorization: Bearer
    nrk_...`. Call the API only from your backend.

        the calling workspace's assessments was deleted, with its versions,
        evidence, outcomes and the identity-graph marks its outcomes set.
        Afterwards GET /v1/assessments/{assessment_id} answers 404 and the
        assessment leaves the account's history. The account is scored again
        from what remains: account.current_assessment_id names the assessment
        GET /v1/accounts/{account_id} now serves its risk from, and is absent
        when the account has no assessment with a decision left. Deleting an
        assessment that is already gone answers 404.

        Your API key, sent as `Authorization: Bearer <key>`. A key is
        `nrk_live_` or `nrk_test_`, a 26-character key id, `_` and a
        43-character secret. A key sees only its own environment's data.


        Each key has one or more scopes: `assess` creates and reads assessments,
        records outcomes and reports key usage; `history` reads assessments, an
        account's current risk and an account's history, and erases an account;
        `detailed` adds the detailed view; `webhooks` registers, tests, rotates
        and deletes webhook endpoints; `integrations` registers and manages
        hosted provider integrations. A missing, unknown, revoked or expired key
        answers 401. A valid key without the scope an operation needs answers
        403.
