# Delete a memory

`DELETE /memories/{id}`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.mymemory.dev/v1`
- URL: `https://api.mymemory.dev/v1/memories/{id}`
- Auth: HTTP bearer

Delete a memory. On a free plan this is permanent and can't be undone. On a paid plan the memory is moved to the Trash in the app and the response has `trashed: true`.

## Path parameters

- `id` string, required

## Response `200`

Deleted

- Success
  - `success` boolean

## Other responses

- `401`: Missing or invalid API key
- `403`: Not allowed: someone else's memory or space, or a plan limit reached (`Memory limit reached`, `Space limit reached`)
- `404`: Not found, or it isn't yours
- `429`: Too many requests. For a rate limit (`error`: `rate_limited`), wait the seconds in the `Retry-After` header; for an AI budget error, until the budget renews.
