Error removing subdomain with cpapi2

Hi

This is an example:
My main domain is "server.com"
I want to create an add on domain "addon.com"
So I run:

cpapi2 AddonDomain addaddondomain dir=/ newdomain=addon.com subdomain=addon.com

This creates an add on domain:
    addon.com

and, in addon.com DNS zone, a lot of A and TXT records, as:

    addon.com.server.com.            A
    www.addon.com.server.com.        A
    default._domainkey.addon.com.server.com.        TXT
    addon.com.server.com.            TXT
    webmail...
    whm...
    webdisk...
    etc.

So far so good.

Now, if I try to delete the domain running:

cpapi2 AddonDomain deladdondomain domain=addon.com  subdomain=addon.com.server.com

This doesn't work. This is the output

cpanelresult: 
  apiversion: 2
  data:
    -
      reason: "You do not have control of the subdomain for “addon.com”.\n\nSubdomain addon.com.server.com was not removed because other domains are parked on top of it"
      result: 0
  error: "You do not have control of the subdomain for “addon.com”.\n\nSubdomain addon.com.server.com was not removed because other domains are parked on top of it"
  event:
    result: 1
  func: deladdondomain
  module: AddonDomain
  postevent:
    result: 1
  preevent:
    result: 1

How can I delete the domain? (I can do this manually in CPanel interface, but not using "cpapi2")

  Hey there!  Running the following command worked well for me:

  # cpapi2 --user=username AddonDomain deladdondomain domain=addonapitest.com subdomain=addonapi.domain.com
  --- 
  cpanelresult: 
    apiversion: 2
    data: 
      - 
        reason: The subdomain “addonapi.domain.com” has been removed.
        result: 1
    event: 
      result: 1
    func: deladdondomain
    module: AddonDomain
    postevent: 
      result: 1
    preevent: 
      result: 1
