# Delete a Incident by ID

`DELETE /rest/operations/1.0/incidents/{incidentId}`

Delete the Incident data currently stored for the given ID.

Deletion is performed asynchronously. The getIncidentById operation can be used to confirm that data has been deleted successfully (if needed).

Only Connect apps that define the `jiraOperationsInfoProvider` module can access this resource.
This resource requires the 'DELETE' scope for Connect apps.

## Path parameters

- `incidentId` string, required

## Response `202`

Delete has been accepted. Data will eventually be removed from Jira if it exists.

## Other responses

- `401` — Missing a JWT token, or token is invalid.
- `403` — The JWT token used does not correspond to an app that defines the Operations Information module, or the app does not define the 'DELETE' scope.
- `429` — API rate limit has been exceeded.
- `503` — Service is unavailable due to maintenance or other reasons.
- `default` — An unknown error has occurred.
