# Get Deletion Request Status

> Poll an application or tenant deletion request

Polls an application or tenant deletion request.

This endpoint requires only a valid API key. `X-Tenant-Id` isn't required.

<RequestExample>
  ```bash cURL theme={null}
  curl -X GET 'https://embed.nova.dweet.com/v1/deletion-requests/delreq_abc123' \
    -H 'Authorization: Bearer sk_live_abc123...'
  ```
</RequestExample>

## Status values

| Status       | Meaning                        |
| ------------ | ------------------------------ |
| `pending`    | Nova accepted the request      |
| `processing` | Background deletion is running |
| `completed`  | Nova processed the request     |
| `failed`     | The request failed             |

## Completed requests

Completed responses confirm that Nova processed the request for the authenticated partner, environment, and scope.

The response does not include internal cleanup counts, storage details, raw tenant IDs, job IDs, or application IDs. Keep the `deletionRequest.id` if you need to discuss a request with Nova support.

<ResponseExample>
  ```json theme={null}
  {
    "deletionRequest": {
      "id": "delreq_abc123",
      "scope": "application",
      "status": "completed",
      "createdAt": "2026-05-10T10:00:00.000Z",
      "updatedAt": "2026-05-10T10:01:00.000Z",
      "completedAt": "2026-05-10T10:01:00.000Z",
      "failedAt": null
    }
  }
  ```
</ResponseExample>
