  # Array of error messages, if any occurred during the operation
  errors: [String!]

  "data": {
    "deletePost": {

Error Response

If the deletion fails, you might receive a response like this:

{
  "data": {
    "deletePost": {
      "success": false,
      "errors": ["Post not found"]
    }
  }
}

Common Errors

Error	Description
Post not found	The specified post ID does not exist
Post already deleted	The post has already been deleted
Insufficient permissions	You don’t have permission to delete this post

Important Notes

• This is a soft delete operation - the post data is retained in the system but marked as deleted
• Deleted posts will not appear in regular queries
• The post can potentially be restored by system administrators if needed
• All associated data (comments, ratings, etc.) will also be hidden when the post is deleted
