Users should be able to delete their own submissions

[sushilshinde]

Problem described in the topcoder-platform/community-app#4213

Cause: V5 submission API delete endpoint only allows admin roles to delete the submissions.

Effect: Community app is using V3 delete endpoint instead of v5, which is probably wrong as back DB is architecture is different for V5, and submissions doesn't reflect the delete action.

Requirement: Users should be able to delete their own submissions

• Is the deletion allowed only if the submission phase is still active?
• What should happen to the reviews of the submission, example, the anti virus scan review...

[sushilshinde]

@Oanh-and-only-Oanh please help with these questions

[Oanh-and-only-Oanh]

@callmekatootie,

1. only allow delete option if submission phase is still active
2. If submission is deleted, review of submission should end and be discarded. This is a permanent action from our servers that can't be undone.

@Oanh-and-only-Oanh @sushilshinde Should this be carried out immediately or should I hold until soft delete feature is implemented (Currently, there's no plan for soft delete yet but I am guessing it is in the pipeline)

[Oanh-and-only-Oanh]

@callmekatootie, what's the LOE and how long will it take to carry out now?

[callmekatootie]

@Oanh-and-only-Oanh Should wrap up in 1-2 days

[callmekatootie]

@Oanh-and-only-Oanh Just making sure - I am waiting on the go ahead from you here. I want to know if I can proceed or if I need to wait for Soft Delete.

Also - the 1-2 days timeline is for the feature request in this ticket - NOT for soft delete.

[Oanh-and-only-Oanh]

apologies for the late reply @callmekatootie. For some reason I don't get notified of mentions in github.

Yes, please more forward with feature request. thank you.
