Delete a user preference
Removes a single preference key for the address bound to X-API-Key. Idempotent — a key that does not exist still returns 200. The key lives in the query string so the resource has a single canonical URL.
Authorizations
Hex-encoded Ed25519 public key (64 chars). The public key IS the API key — register it via POST /createApiKey. Required on every authenticated request, both read-only and signed.
Unix time in nanoseconds as a decimal string (e.g. "1713825891591000000"). Millisecond or second epochs are rejected with 401 Unauthorized. Must be within ±30,000 ms (MaxTimestampDriftMs, the drift window stays configured in milliseconds) of server wall-clock, or the request is rejected with 401 Unauthorized. Required on all mutating / credential-creating endpoints. This same value must appear as the ct field in the ordersign typed canonical payload (single-order endpoints) or in each element's ct field (batch endpoints).
Lowercase hex-encoded Ed25519 signature (128 chars).
Single-order endpoints (placeOrder, cancelOrder, modifyOrder, and other non-batch mutating routes) sign over the ordersign typed canonical payload — a compact, key-sorted JSON object built from parsed request fields using engine-native integer values:
placeOrder: {"ad":"0x…","ai":N,[,"c":"…"],"ct":N,"g":N,"m":N,"op":1,"p":N,"q":N,"r":0|1,"s":N,"t":N,"v":1}
cancelOrder: {"ad":"0x…","ai":N,[,"c":"…"],"ct":N,[,"id":"…"],"m":N,"op":2,"v":1}
modifyOrder: {"ad":"0x…","ai":N,[,"c":"…"],"ct":N,[,"id":"…"],"m":N,"op":3,"p":N,"q":N,"v":1}ct must equal the X-Timestamp header value. Keys in brackets are conditional (omitted when empty). op values: 1=place, 2=cancel, 3=modify. See the ordersign package for field definitions and reference signing code.
Other signed routes (e.g. createApiKey, tokens, userPreferences) still use the legacy scheme: signing_message = X-Timestamp + ACTION + canonicalJSON(body), where ACTION is the camelCase final path segment.
Batch endpoints (batchPlaceOrders, batchCancelOrders) do NOT use this header. They authenticate with per-element typed ordersign signatures embedded in the request body (see the global auth description and the per-field signature descriptions on OrderRequest / CancelOrderRequest).
Read endpoints are authenticated by ?address= (and optionally X-API-Key) only — no signature is required. canonicalJSON(body) is the JSON body with object keys sorted lexicographically at every level and no whitespace; the server canonicalizes the received body before verifying, so only the bytes signed over must be canonical. Required on all mutating / credential-creating endpoints.
Query Parameters
The preference key to delete. Must be a known registry key (else 400).
Known preference key. The set is closed; PATCHing or DELETEing a key not in this enum returns 400 with allowed listing the accepted set.

Key deleted (or no-op if it did not exist).
20-byte EVM address as hex: optional 0x or 0X prefix and exactly 40 hexadecimal digits. API responses normalize to lowercase a–f after 0x.
^(0x|0X)?[0-9a-fA-F]{40}$Known preference key. The set is closed; PATCHing or DELETEing a key not in this enum returns 400 with allowed listing the accepted set.
