}DELETE Delete a task
Remove a task from an application.
DreamApply performs task removal using the following rules:
- Scope: You can remove both active and trashed tasks using this request.
- Attached documents: Tasks can be removed even if they have documents attached. Deleting the task does not delete the documents; they remain linked to the application and stay accessible in the Documents section of the application.
- Score re-calculation: When a task is deleted, DreamApply automatically re-calculates scores for all offers associated with the application. For details, see Offers.
