# Delete an audience. The leads in it are kept.

`POST /api/external/v1/audiences/delete`

Only the segment is removed. Unlike the dashboard's version, this
endpoint has no option to delete the leads themselves: that is
irreversible, and nothing about removing a grouping implies destroying
the people in it. Leads that were only reachable through this audience
remain in the workspace and are still findable with leads/search.

## Request body

- object
  - `workspace_id` integer, required — The workspace it belongs to.
  - `audience_id` integer, required — From list-audiences.

## Response `200`

- object
  - `audience_id` integer
  - `leads_kept` integer
  - `message` string

## Changes

- **2026-08-17** `dd3f47f72f7a` — 1 info
  - endpoint added
