Resource name is not formatted correctly:

If you try deleting the contact via Try this API from this page, you will notice that the URL to access has this shape:

https://people.googleapis.com/v1/people/c7142462727258425368:deleteContact

Where people/c7142462727258425368 is the contact's resourceName. That is to say, the resource name does not have single quotes (' ') nor brakets ({ }) around it. Since the resource name is not probably formatted in the URL, the API is not recognizing it, causing the 404 error.

That's what's failing in your request:

https://people.googleapis.com/v1/%7B'people/c9194159806299427121'%7D:deleteContact

To fix this, just remove the brackets around abcd when you provide it as resource name. It should be like this:

service.people().deleteContact(resourceName=abcd).execute()
