Delete a Social Inbox label

social_inbox.labels.delete

Deletes an inbox label and removes it from the items that have it (up to 500 per call). It stays 30 days in the trash; restoring it brings the label back with the same id and puts it back on those items (the ones deleted meanwhile are skipped). Rules that add it (add_labels) keep adding it to new items while it is in the trash, where it does not show: the dry run lists them (counts.rules and a warning). Outside the screen it needs a dry run and a confirm_token, except a REST DELETE with a key allowed to delete. Returns how many items were updated. Requires full access and an owner, admin or member role.

With an API key, this DELETE runs directly: the record stays 30 days in the trash and the response carries its trash_item_id. With an OAuth token, and through the MCP, it needs dry_run → confirm_token.

Scope

social_inbox:write and “Allow deletions” (social_inbox:delete in OAuth)
