Response

On a successful delete on the old card, the HTTP status 204 No Content is returned with an empty body — success is checked by the status. On the new card, instead of 204 a 410 GONE with a JSON body is returned (see below).

Response example

Old card:

HTTP/1.1 204 No Content

Error response example

410 — new task card (method unavailable):

JSON
{
  "success": false,
  "error": {
    "code": "GONE",
    "message": "Bitrix24 disabled update/delete for task comments in the new task card. To remove a comment, delete the source task or ask a portal admin to remove the message via the chat UI.",
    "hint": "Verified against apidocs.bitrix24.com on 2026-05-09 — the modern task-chat API accepts only new messages, no edit or delete."
  }
}

Errors

HTTP Code Description
400 INVALID_PARAMS taskId or id are not positive integers
410 GONE The task was created on the new card — deleting a comment is unavailable on the Bitrix24 side
403 SCOPE_DENIED The API key does not have the task scope
401 TOKEN_MISSING The API key has no configured tokens

Known specifics

Alternative for the new card. There is no way to delete a posted comment programmatically. If the content needs to be hidden — delete the whole task (DELETE /v1/tasks/:id), or ask the Bitrix24 account admin to remove the message via the chat UI.
