The headers of this request must include an X-Dangerous key set to true. To preview which resources will be destroyed, first query the Droplet's associated resources. This operation can not be reverse and should be used with caution.

A successful response will include a 202 response code and no content. Use the status endpoint to check on the success or failure of the destruction of the individual resources.
