A `DELETE` request is sent to `https://chat.googleapis.com/v1/{name=spaces/*}`. The `name` path parameter specifies the space to delete. The `useAdminAccess` query parameter enables administrator privileges, which requires the `chat.admin.delete` OAuth scope and specific admin rights. The request body must be empty, and a successful deletion returns an empty JSON object. Authorization requires specific OAuth scopes.\n"]]
