Documented steps
Auth: Authorization: Bearer {token} with responses:write scope; EU accounts must target their regional base URL.
Collect target response IDs (tokens) first, e.g. via GET /forms/{form_id}/responses filtered with since/until or `query`.
DELETE https://api.typeform.com/forms/{form_id}/responses with `included_response_ids` set to a comma-separated ID list (query string or request body).
Batch in groups of up to 1000 response IDs per request — the documented per-request limit.
A 200 means the deletion request was successfully REGISTERED, not that data is already purged — deletion is not guaranteed synchronous.
Non-existent IDs are silently ignored (no error) — verify actual removal by re-querying GET .../responses afterward.

Known gotchas
200 != purged — don't assume synchronous completion for compliance-deadline purposes; verify with a follow-up GET.
Silently-ignored bad IDs can mask typos in the deletion list.
responses:write also permits other destructive response actions — scope GDPR-cleanup tokens narrowly.
>1000 IDs must be chunked across multiple DELETE calls.
