# Delete a contact

`DELETE /api/v2/contacts/{id}`

<a class="try-sandbox-link" href="https://sandbox.textmagic.com/#/Contacts/deleteContact" target="_blank">Try in sandbox</a><br>> This command removes your contact completely. If it was assigned or saved to a shared list, it will disappear from there too. If you only need to remove a contact from selected lists, use the Contact assignment command in the Lists section instead, rather than deleting the contact.

Request executed with success.
