# Eliminar un archivo

> DELETE /media/{pk}/

Elimina un archivo, en el host de la **API de gestión** (`api.scanova.io`), autenticado con su clave de API de gestión sin procesar.

```
DELETE https://api.scanova.io/media/{pk}/
Authorization: 401f7ac837da42b97f613d789819ff93537bee6a
```

<ParamField path="pk" type="integer" required>
  El `id` del archivo.
</ParamField>

<RequestExample>
  ```bash cURL theme={null}
  curl -X DELETE "https://api.scanova.io/media/4821/" \
    -H "Authorization: 401f7ac837da42b97f613d789819ff93537bee6a"
  ```
</RequestExample>

Una llamada correcta devuelve `204 No Content`. `404` si `pk` no corresponde a un archivo propiedad de esta cuenta.

<Note>
  Para eliminar varios archivos por su ruta de almacenamiento en una sola llamada, use [Eliminar archivos masivamente por ruta](/es/api-reference/management-api/user-media/bulk-delete-by-path).

  description: >-
    The complete Scanova Management API — every endpoint available at
    api.scanova.io (QR codes, folders, tags, leads, forms, analytics, plans,
    shared users & roles), plus the token-creation and usage-stats endpoints
    used to authenticate against it. Every path and request/response shape below
    was verified live against a real API key and the actual running backend
    (Phase 7, 2026-08-16) — not guessed from reading urls.py alone.

      description: >-
        Send your Management API key as the raw value of the Authorization
        header — no "Bearer " or "Token " prefix, and no other characters.
        Example: `Authorization: 401f7ac837da42b97f613d789819ff93537bee6a`. A
        header containing more than one space-separated part is rejected
        outright. Requests also require the request's Host header to be the
        management API host (e.g. api.scanova.io) — the same key sent to the
        regular API host will not authenticate.
