# Remove a third-party user token

`POST /user/third_party_token/remove`

This endpoint is used to delete a third-party user token. Once removed, the token can no longer be used to access data associated with the user.

Any subsequent calls to retrieve information using the same third-party user token will result in an error stating the third-party user token does not exist.

  - `third_party_user_token` string, required — The third-party user token associated with the requested User data.
