## Error responses

| Status | Error                 | Solution                             |
| ------ | --------------------- | ------------------------------------ |
| 404    | Transaction not found | Check the transaction key is correct |
| 400    | Action failed         | Transaction may already be archived  |

<Tip>
  Use archive instead of delete when you may need to reverse the action later. To undo an archive, use the [restore](/api-reference/transactions/restore) endpoint.
