# Delete a contact list

`DELETE /lists/{id}`

Soft-deletes a list. Returns 409 if the list is used by forms, landing pages, or automations.

## Response `200`

List deleted

- object
  - `message` string

## Other responses

- `403` — Forbidden. Most often an ownership/authorization failure (Laravel's default `{"message": "..."}` shape). If the account is restricted by SendFox, the response instead carries the structured `account_restricted` body with a link to the account status page.
- `404` — List not found
- `409` — List is in use
