Customiser mounting colours
Delete a mounting colour image
Clears one of the mounting colour's image slots and deletes the stored
file, returning a receipt naming what was removed and the mounting
colour as it now stands. Requires customisers:write and an
Idempotency-Key.
Overview
Deleting from a slot that holds no image answers 404. The delete clears the customiser's cached storefront configuration and runs the advisory language sync, and never regenerates Shopify products, product images, or the product cache.

Required scope: customisers:write
Path parameters
The customiser id.
