Pushbullet API: Delete Chat method returns Object not found

Question

I receive a list of chat identifiers using /v2/chats endpoint.

When I try to delete a chat found in that list using the /v2/chats/{iden} endpoint I always receive a Object not found error.

My request:

curl --header 'Access-Token: TOKEN' --request DELETE  https://api.pushbullet.com/v2/chats/IDENTIFIER

The Response:

{
    "error" : {
        "code":"invalid_request",
        "type":"invalid_request",
        "message":"Object not found",
        "cat":"(^人^)"},
        "error_code":"invalid_request"
    }
 }

This occurs with any chat identifier I try to use.

The "hide" chat menu item in the app (Android) does not remove the chat either.

I just tried this request and it seems to work fine. If you delete a chat which has already been deleted you get that error though.

It seems the problem is that creating a chat does not mark it as "active". I need to send a message first in order to delete it. – Greg Martinez Mar 18 '16 at 23:46

Creating a Chat using the /v2/chats endpoint creates a chat that shows up when doing a list-chats call. However the chat is not marked as active and therefore it is not deletable until you send a message in the chat.

I just created a chat with /v2/chats and then deleted it and there were no errors. – Chris Pushbullet Mar 25 '16 at 00:32
