Deletes the job and everything of it - the uploaded file, page images, every sheet’s values, its exports and view links - at once: from then on it answers 404 everywhere, and its files are erased within minutes. A job still being read stops and its unspent credits come back; spent credits stay spent. Pending webhook events for it are dropped. Cannot be undone. A live key acting as the workspace’s owner or an admin.
