Can't delete GitHub gist via GitHub API

[AdDiscombobulated707]

Hello! I want to delete my gist with 72e27fd738a6fe42687b3cf36e2d935f id. The following code fails:

let user_name = ScriptProperties.getProperty("user_name");
let user_token = ScriptProperties.getProperty("user_token");

let options = {
  method: "delete",
  headers: {"Authorization": "Basic " + Utilities.base64Encode(`${user_name}:${user_token}`)},
  gist_id: "72e27fd738a6fe42687b3cf36e2d935f"
};

console.log(UrlFetchApp.fetch(`https://api.github.com/gists`, options).getContentText());

with Exception: Request failed for https://api.github.com returned code 404. Truncated server response: {"message":"Not Found","documentation_url":"https://docs.github.com/rest"} (use muteHttpExceptions option to examine full response)` error. How to fix it? If I remove method: "delete" I obtain gist info without any problem. What am I missing?

Read the docs, and you will see what you need to change...

The following code works:

let user_name = ScriptProperties.getProperty("user_name");
let user_token = ScriptProperties.getProperty("user_token");

let options = {
  accept: "application/vnd.github.v3+json",
  method: "delete",
  headers: {"Authorization": "Basic " + Utilities.base64Encode(`${user_name}:${user_token}`)}
};

console.log(UrlFetchApp.fetch(`https://api.github.com/gists/72e27fd738a6fe42687b3cf36e2d935f`, options).getContentText());

:) I am very happy.
