# Delete an incident on a custom source

`DELETE /v1/incidents/{incident_id}`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://statusstack.com/api`
- URL: `https://statusstack.com/api/v1/incidents/{incident_id}`
- Auth: HTTP bearer

Needs the `delete` permission.

## Response `204`

Incident deleted

## Other responses

- `401`: No bearer credentials, or credentials that do not resolve to an API key or Sanctum token. Produced by `ApiAuthentication` ahead of the route, so every operation in the v1 group can return it.
- `403`: The API key lacks the required permission, or a policy denied the action. The two come from different layers and return different bodies, so this is a union rather than one shape.
- `404`: No such incident
- `429`: The `v1-api` rate limit (120 requests per minute) was exceeded. Applies to every operation in the v1 group.
