# Delete template

> Soft-delete a template. Only own templates can be deleted.

```
DELETE https://www.wiseyield.co/api/v1/templates/{id}
```

### Authentication

Requires a key with the `tasks:write` scope.

### Path parameters

<ParamField path="id" type="string" required>Template UUID.</ParamField>

### Response

Returns `204 No Content` on success.

<Warning>
  Recurring task schedules and previously-applied tasks reference the template by UUID via foreign key. Soft-deleting the template doesn't affect those — but new attempts to apply or create recurring schedules against it will return `404 NOT_FOUND`.
</Warning>

<RequestExample>
  ```bash cURL theme={null}
  curl -X DELETE 'https://www.wiseyield.co/api/v1/templates/aaaaaaaa.../...' \
    -H "Authorization: Bearer $WISEYIELD_API_KEY"
  ```
