NAME
     delforward -- Command for removing a forwarding entry

SYNOPSIS
     delforward in_channel in_htlc_id status

DESCRIPTION
     The  delforward RPC command removes a single forward from listforwards, us-
     ing the uniquely-identifying in_channel and in_htlc_id (and,  as  a  sanity
     check, the status) given by that command.

     This  command  is mainly used by the autoclean plugin (see lightningd- con-
     fig(7)), As these database entries are only kept for your own analysis, re-
     moving them has no effect on the running of your node.

     *	in_channel (short_channel_id): Only the matching forwards on  the  given
	inbound  channel  are deleted. Note: for listforwards entries without an
	in_htlc_id entry (no longer created in v22.11, but can exist from  older
	versions), a value of 18446744073709551615 can be used, but then it will
	delete all entries without in_htlc_id for this in_channel and status.
     *	in_htlc_id  (u64):  The unique HTLC id the sender gave this (not present
	if incoming channel was closed before upgrade to v22.11).
     *	status (string) (one of "settled", "local_failed", "failed"): The status
	of the forward to delete. You cannot delete forwards which  have  status
	offered (i.e. are currently active).

RETURN VALUE
     On success, an empty object is returned.

ERRORS
     The following errors may be reported:

     *	1401: The forward specified does not exist.
