Pause, Resume, Cancel, or Delete

Control active Manifest AI document jobs and delete retained customer content safely.

POST an action to a document to pause, resume, or cancel processing. DELETE the document resource only after it reaches a terminal state to scrub retained customer content while preserving minimal operational audit records.

Processing actions

Actions are state-aware and idempotent where practical.

cURL
curl -X POST "https://manifestai.io/api/v1/documents/DOCUMENT_ID/actions" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $MANIFEST_AI_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"action":"cancel"}'

Content deletion

Deletion is a privacy action, not a way to erase billing or security history.

DELETE /api/v1/documents/{id} removes retained result content, page evidence, identifying document metadata, and fingerprints after terminal completion. Minimal usage, billing, and security audit information may remain.
