# Delete a configuration

> **API operation:** [Open the endpoint in Scalar](https://docs.ordering.co/api-reference/#tag/configs/DELETE/configs/{config})

Use `DELETE /configs/{config}` to remove one configuration by its numeric identifier. The operation documented here is `Config.delete`.

The final path parameter `config` identifies the configuration to delete; confirm its ID and project before sending the request.

The documented route is restricted to server or administrator access. Deletion is a destructive operation: resolve the exact configuration ID and confirm the intended project before sending the request.

## Legacy SDK example

```javascript
const response = await ordering.configs(configId).delete()
```

Confirm the SDK package and version before using this helper.
