# Remove label from content

`DELETE /wiki/rest/api/content/{id}/label/{label}`

Removes a label from a piece of content. Labels can't be deleted from archived content.
This is similar to [Remove label from content using query parameter](#api-content-id-label-delete)
except that the label name is specified via a path parameter.

Use this method if the label name does not have "/" characters, as the path
parameter does not accept "/" characters for security reasons. Otherwise,
use [Remove label from content using query parameter](#api-content-id-label-delete).

**[Permissions](https://confluence.atlassian.com/x/_AozKw) required**:
Permission to update the content.

## Path parameters

- `id` string, required
- `label` string, required

## Response `204`

Returned if the label is removed. The response body will be empty.

## Other responses

- `400` — Returned if the label name has a "/" character.
- `403` — Returned if the calling user can view but not edit the content.
- `404` — Returned if; - There is no content with the given ID. - The calling user does not have permission to view the content.
