# Delete Live Stream

`DELETE /v1/live-streams/{stream_id}`

Permanently delete a live stream.

Deletion is immediate and final: the stream disappears from feeds and
every API lookup, and its playback URLs (including the recorded VOD's)
are permanently revoked within seconds to minutes. Deleted streams cannot
be restored through the API.

Analytics history is retained — viewer metrics and events for the stream
keep working and remain attributed to it.

## Path parameters

- `stream_id` string, required

## Response `200`

Successful Response

- unknown

## Other responses

- `422` — Validation Error
