# Delete a workflow

`DELETE /api/v1/workflows/{id}`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.sendly.now`
- URL: `https://api.sendly.now/api/v1/workflows/{id}`
- Auth: one of:
  - HTTP bearer
  - API key in cookie `better-auth.session_token`
  - OAuth 2 (authorization code, authorization URL `https://app.sendly.now/api/auth/oauth2/authorize`, token URL `https://app.sendly.now/api/auth/oauth2/token`, scopes: `workflows:write`)

Refused with 409 while executions are still running: deleting a workflow cascades its executions away, and a contact mid-journey disappearing is data loss the caller cannot detect afterwards. Disable the workflow or cancel its runs first.

Requires the `workflows:write` scope — Create, edit, enable, and delete your automation workflows.

## Path parameters

- `id` string, uuid, required: Workflow id.

## Response `200`

Workflow deleted

- WorkflowDeletedV1: Confirmation that a workflow was deleted.
  - `deleted` true, required
  - `id` string, uuid, required

## Other responses

- `401`: `invalid_api_key` or `invalid_session` — missing or invalid credentials.
- `403`: `scope_missing`, `project_access_denied`, or `project_disabled`.
- `404`: `resource_not_found` — no workflow with this id belongs to the authenticated project.
- `409`: `conflict` — the workflow still has running executions.
- `422`: `validation_error` — query, path, or body parameters did not match the schema.
- `429`: `rate_limited` — see `Retry-After` and the `RateLimit` headers.
- `500`: `internal_error`.
