# Erase a tenant

> Destroys the tenant, its subjects, every objective associated with it and everything reachable from those objectives, and its widget sessions. This is the full erasure hammer, wider than `DELETE /widget_sessions`, which removes only what widget sessions created. The work runs in the background: this returns the tenant in STATE_ERASING rather than a count of what was removed, since a large tenant's history cannot be destroyed inside a request. Poll the tenant to follow it — STATE_ERASING while it runs, NotFound once it finishes. Erasure is terminal; a tenant cannot be recovered once it starts.

    description: |-
      Issue, rotate, disable, and revoke a workspace's API keys. Every key
       belongs to exactly one workspace; the system-managed global account key is
       managed via GlobalAPIKeyService instead.
  - name: AccountService
    description: >-
      Manage the authenticated account. Accounts are the top-level
      organizational
       unit and contain one or more workspaces.
  - name: AgentScheduleService
    description: >-
      Manage recurring schedules attached to agents. Schedules trigger
      objectives
       on a cadence defined by AgentScheduleSpec.Schedule.
  - name: AgentService
    description: >-
      Manage AI agents within a workspace. Agents define AI behavior and tool
      access.
  - name: AgentVariationService
    description: >-
      Manage variations of an agent and their tool, sub-agent, and memory layer
      assignments.
  - name: GlobalAPIKeyService
    description: |-
      Manage the account's system-provisioned global API key. The global key is
       the only key that spans every workspace; it is created by the system and
       cannot be deleted, so the surface is retrieve, rotate, and the
       disable/enable kill switch.
  - name: MemoryService
    description: >-
      Manage memory layers and their entries. Layers are named containers that
      can
       be composed into an objective's memory cascade; entries are the keyed values
       within a layer. System-managed layers (e.g., episodic layers created by the
       runtime) cannot be mutated through this API.
  - name: ModelService
    description: |-
      Manage LLM models available to a workspace. Models represent provider and
       family pairs (e.g., "anthropic/claude-sonnet-4.6"). Workspaces are seeded
       with the supported models and you can enable or disable each one.
  - name: ObjectiveEventStreamsService
  - name: ObjectiveService
  - name: ProfilesService
    description: |-
      Operations on profiles, the account-level principals (users, API keys,
       system) that authenticate against the API.
  - name: SearchService
  - name: TenantService
    description: >-
      Read and erase tenants and the subjects under them. Tenants and subjects
      are
       created by assertion — on objective creation or widget session mint — never
       directly, so this service has no create or update: it exists to enumerate what
       assertions have produced, and to destroy it on request.
  - name: ToolService
    description: >-
      Manage tool sets and the tools they contain. Tool sets group related
      tools,
       and tools define specific capabilities available to agents.

       When a tool set is managed, only API key actors can modify its tools; human
       (profile) actors cannot.
  - name: UploadService
    description: |-
      Issue short-lived presigned URLs for direct client-to-object-storage
       uploads. Created uploads can be referenced by id when creating or updating
       resources that accept binary content (e.g., MemoryEntry).
  - name: WidgetService
    description: |-
      Manage embeddable chat widgets. A widget binds an agent to a globally
       unique hostname with a per-widget origin allowlist; browsers reach it with
       session tokens minted via WidgetSessionService.
  - name: WidgetSessionService
    description: >-
      Mint and manage widget sessions. Session creation is server-to-server
      only:
       the customer's backend authenticates its visitor, asserts tenant/subject
       context, attaches any per-visitor secrets, and receives a short-lived
       bearer token the browser uses against the widget host.
  - name: WorkspaceAdminService
    description: >-
      Administer workspaces across the account: create and archive workspaces
      and
       manage their membership. These operations are account-scoped and require the
       admin role (a token whose profile holds the WorkOS admin role); they live
       under /v1/account/workspaces rather than the workspace-scoped /v1/workspaces
       tree so an admin can manage any workspace in the account, including ones they
       are not themselves a member of.
  - name: WorkspaceSecretService
  - name: WorkspaceService
    description: |-
      Manage workspaces within an account. Workspaces provide organizational
       grouping and isolation for resources such as agents, tools, and API keys.

       This is the workspace-scoped, end-user surface. Administrative operations
       (create / archive workspaces, manage members) live in WorkspaceAdminService
       under /v1/account/workspaces and require the admin role.

        Tenant is the customer's organization as a readable record rather than

         everything about it lives in the metadata envelope — `external_id` is the key
         the customer asserted it under, `name` is the most recent name they asserted,
         and `updated_at` is therefore when the tenant was last asserted.

        The `Status` type defines a logical error model that is suitable for
        different programming environments, including REST APIs and RPC APIs. It
        is used by [gRPC](https://github.com/grpc). Each `Status` message
        contains three pieces of data: error code, error message, and error
        details. You can find out more about this error model and how to work
        with it in the [API Design
        Guide](https://cloud.google.com/apis/design/errors).
