Delete a segment

DELETE
https://api.getsitecontrol.com/v1/sites/{site_id}/segments/{segment_id}
curl --request DELETE \
--url https://api.getsitecontrol.com/v1/sites/1/segments/1 \
--header 'Authorization: Bearer <token>'

Deletes a segment that nothing uses; the contacts in it are not touched. A segment is in use while an automation that is not deleted (enabled or not), a broadcast that has not ended (drafts included) or another segment refers to it: change or delete those first. Deletion cannot be undone.
