The key stops working at once.

`DELETE /v1/api-keys/{id}`

## TL;DR

| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What does it do? | Revoke an API key. |
| What does it need? | An API key or an OAuth access token. |
| What does it take? | `id` in the path. |
| What does it return? | Status 204 with no body. |
| In the SDK? | `flung.apiKeys.revoke()` |
| What can go wrong? | `401` Missing, unknown, revoked or expired API key; `403` This key cannot manage API keys; `404` No such live key in this workspace; `422` The request failed validation; `429` Too many requests for this credential; wait for `retry-after` seconds. Every failure has the same [error shape](https://docs.flung.dev/reference/api/errors.md). |

## What it does

The key stops working at once. Revoking the key that makes this request is allowed.

## Example

**curl**

```bash
curl -X DELETE 'https://api.flung.dev/v1/api-keys/key_aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa' \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer $FLUNG_API_KEY"
```

**TypeScript**

```ts
import { Flung } from '@flung.dev/sdk'

const flung = new Flung({ apiKey: process.env.FLUNG_API_KEY! })
await flung.apiKeys.revoke({
  id: 'key_aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa',
})
```

**fetch**

```js
const response = await fetch('https://api.flung.dev/v1/api-keys/key_aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa', {
  method: 'DELETE',
  headers: {
    'Authorization': `Bearer ${process.env.FLUNG_API_KEY}`,
  },
})
if (!response.ok) throw new Error((await response.json()).error.message)
```
