Archives a flag.

curl --request POST \
--url 'https://api.featureflip.io/api/v1/orgs/example/projects/example/flags/example/archive?force=false' \
--header 'Authorization: <Authorization>'

Requires at least Member.

Archive even though live traffic is still evaluating the flag. Without it the request is refused with FLAG_RECENTLY_EVALUATED naming the environments still reading it — which usually means the removal has merged but not yet deployed.

X-Intent-Reason
string

Why you are making this change, recorded in the audit log. Percent-encoded UTF-8 (encode it the way encodeURIComponent does); at most 2048 characters after decoding. Required when the target environment — or, for project-wide changes, any environment in the project — requires a change reason; without one the request is refused with 422 change_reason_required.

X-RateLimit-Limit
integer

The maximum number of requests permitted per rate-limit window for this caller.

X-RateLimit-Remaining
integer

The number of requests remaining in the current rate-limit window.

X-RateLimit-Reset
integer

The UTC time at which the current rate-limit window resets, as a Unix timestamp in seconds.

The request is malformed, or it carries an If-Match header, which this endpoint can’t evaluate. Send no If-Match, or *.

Media type application/json

The frozen public-API error contract. error codes are stable snake_case strings. Wire keys are frozen snake_case too (error, message, docs_url, fields, retry_after) — the global camelCase naming policy would otherwise emit docsUrl/retryAfter, breaking the published spec. !:JsonPropertyName always wins over the policy, so these are pinned explicitly rather than relying on the property names already being lowercase for the single-word ones. did_you_mean, next_actions and connection_id are ADDITIVE optional keys (null → omitted via the global DefaultIgnoreCondition = WhenWritingNull), so pre-existing error bodies are byte-for-byte unchanged when they’re absent.

connection_id is present only on the sso_required error: the organization requires single sign-on, and this credential didn’t come through its identity provider. connection_id identifies which SSO connection to sign in with. plan_limit is present only on the plan_limit_reached error: which plan cap the request would have exceeded, so a client can branch on it without parsing message.
