Suppress an address
Add an address to this project's suppression list, so no further send reaches it.
Idempotent: suppressing an already-suppressed address answers 201 with the EXISTING record rather than 409. The first reason and source win, because a later manual entry must not overwrite what an SES bounce recorded.
source is NOT accepted in the body — it is derived from the credential (API for an API key, DASHBOARD for a session), so a record's provenance cannot be dressed up as a deliverability fact.
Requires the suppression:write scope — Add and remove addresses on your suppression list.
API key authentication. Use a sk_* (FULL) or pk_* (SENDING_ONLY) key as the bearer token. Public keys (pk_*) are restricted to the email-send endpoints and the self-serve list subscribe/unsubscribe pair; every other endpoint — event tracking included — answers 403 for them. In scope terms (used by /api/v1/* operations): FULL keys hold every scope; SENDING_ONLY keys hold only emails:send.
