DELETE/v3/chats/{chatId}/location

Stop a contact’s location share with you. handle is required and names whose share to end.

Returns 202 when the request is accepted. The stop is carried out on the contact’s device, and the location.sharing.stopped webhook fires once sharing has ended.

Sharing is per contact, so this ends that contact’s share in every chat you have with them.

Returns 404 if the contact isn’t currently sharing.
