Delete a file with the specified ID.

Note: This endpoint does not check if the specified file is in use. Use with caution.

Considerations for invoice attachments

Deleting a file does not delete it from the attachments list of accounts receivable invoices, quotes, and credit notes because these documents contain an inline copy of all referenced resources. To delete a file from attachments, call PATCH /receivables/{receivable_id} and update the attachments list to exclude the deleted file.
