Auth: write key
Cost: 1 event; never refused for your plan

Erases everything held for the app user named in X-Alexein-User: every item, excerpt and fact, every version, and anything still on its way in. It does what Delete app user does in the console, so an account deletion in your app can erase the user's memory without anyone opening the console. See Handling erasure requests.

It cannot be undone. A later add for the same id starts an empty memory. Like every erasure, it is listed in the organisation's Deletion log. To erase only some of a user's memory, use forget.
