Assets HTTP API DELETE is no longer working

[laniweisbart]

We have been using the Assets HTTP API to Create and Delete content fragments and have just started receiving an error message only when sending a DELETE post.  We are on AEM 6.5.21.  Does anyone know why this would just start happening?  

"status.message": "Source does not support deletion",
"status.code": 403

@laniweisbart I would start checking with Permissions, if anything changed there.

Thank you.  It turned out to be a permissions issue.  The user had to be set as a member on the folder where the Content Fragments were being Created/Deleted via the API.  This wasn't the case before.
