# Remove a member (static segments)

`DELETE /v1/segments/{id}/members/{contactId}`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.volanea.com`
- URL: `https://api.volanea.com/v1/segments/{id}/members/{contactId}`
- Auth: HTTP bearer

Marks a contact as exited from a **static** segment and emits `segment.exited`.

Static only: membership of a dynamic segment is derived from its conditions, so removing someone by hand would be undone by the next refresh. Attempting it answers 422 — edit the conditions instead.

The contact record is untouched and the same contact can be added back later with `POST /v1/segments/{id}/members`.

## Path parameters

- `id` string, required
- `contactId` string, required

## Response `200`

Removed.

- object
  - `success` boolean, required

## Other responses

- `401`: Missing or invalid API key.
- `404`: Not found.
- `422`: Request validation failed (code `validation_error`, 422).
