deletion of task has no effect

[haegar33]

Bug description

using the api.delete_task() function reports success but task are still present

Expected behaviour

when executing the api.delete_task() twice I would expect an error for the second call as task should be already deleted

Is reproducible

Yes

To reproduce

Code Snipplet:

from todoist_api_python.api import TodoistAPI
api = TodoistAPI(key)

I receive a list of completed task via the REST API as this does not work with the python module. I get a python dict clist, then:

  for c in clist:
        print('Delete item: ',c['content'],c['task_id'])
        try:
            is_success = api.delete_task(task_id=c['task_id'])
            print(is_success)
        except Exception as error:
            print(error)

works fine, but when I run the script a second time all "deleted" tasks are back again

Version information:

• Package version: 8.1.3
• Python version: 3.10

actually the problem is not for the python module but for all API calls! Whether using the Sync V9 or REST V2 API it is not possible to delete tasks. Looks like this intentional by the company to preserve your data for commercial reasons?
