# Delete Content

`DELETE /v0/enterprise/{enterprise_id}/content/{content_id}/`

Permanently deletes a content item from the enterprise's Content Management library by content_id. This action is irreversible — the file and its metadata are removed immediately and cannot be recovered.

**Common Use Cases**

Removing outdated or superseded files from the content library
Cleaning up test or temporary files uploaded during development
Maintaining a tidy library by removing content that is no longer referenced in any active device operations

**Best Practices**

Confirm the correct content_id using GET /v0/enterprise/{enterprise_id}/content/{content_id}/ before deleting — this action cannot be undone
Verify the file is not actively referenced in any pending or scheduled device push operations before deleting to avoid broken references
Use GET /v0/enterprise/{enterprise_id}/content/ to audit the library and identify candidates for deletion
