Prerequisites:
- Have your API authentication credentials ready: auth-userid and api-key.
- Know the Order ID of the Cloud Hosting order to delete.

Steps:
1) Use the HTTP POST method to send the delete request.
2) Construct the API URL based on your server location (US or India):
   - US Server:  
     `https://test.httpapi.com/api/cloudsites/linux/us/delete.json`
   - India Server:  
     `https://test.httpapi.com/api/cloudsites/linux/in/delete.json`
3) Append the required parameters as query strings:  
   `auth-userid` (Integer), `api-key` (String), and `order-id` (Integer).
   
   Example for US Server:  
   `https://test.httpapi.com/api/cloudsites/linux/us/delete.json?auth-userid=0&amp;api-key=keyℴ-id=0`
4) Submit the POST request to execute the delete operation.
5) Check the returned response map for execution details of the deletion.
