Remove an email address
DELETE /fapi/v1/me/emails/{email_id} · called from the environment's sign-in host
Removes one of the authenticated user's email addresses. The primary address cannot be removed; make another verified address primary first. If the environment requires an email address, the user's last verified address cannot be removed either. Requires the authenticated user's __Host-idp_session cookie; if the cookie is missing, expired, or revoked, returns 401 unauthenticated. A first-party app on another origin can instead send its front API access token (Authorization: DPoP <token> with a DPoP proof; see Front API access token).
The session must have been verified in the last 5 minutes. If the user has a second factor, the session must also have been opened with a second factor (urn:idp:acr:mfa).
