// Delete the user even if they still have files in their account
client.users.delete('123', {force: true})
.then(() => {
// deletion succeeded — no value returned
});There are also two optional parameters that may be set when deleting a user account:
- force: Whether the user should be deleted even if the account still has content in it.
- notify: Whether the user will receive a notification that the account was deleted.
