Remove line item from order without refunding?

[ob2873]

Is there a way to remove a line item from an order without refunding?

https://shopify.dev/tutorials/edit-an-existing-order-with-admin-api - this article seems to suggest you can, but I don't see any API documentation on it.

Seems possible to remove line item in admin, but it forces you to refund.

You can remove a product through the order edit API by sending quantity: 0 for that line item. Unfortunately, at this time this will trigger a refund. I will bring this up as feedback for the team though.

we need this function as we always have a lot of changes to custom orders. 

Now it's showing non-existent refunds on the dashboards.
