# Delete Facility

> Remove a facility from your organization

# Delete Facility

Soft-delete a facility from your organization. The facility is marked as disabled (`enabled=false`) and associated supply contracts are deactivated.

<Warning>
  **Side Effects**: Deleting a facility will deactivate all linked supply contracts and trigger a `DELETE_FACILITY` event for downstream processing.
</Warning>

## Request

### Path Parameters

<ParamField path="facility_id" type="uuid" required>
  The UUID of the facility to delete

  **Example:** `550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000`
</ParamField>

### Headers

<ParamField header="x-api-key" type="string" required>
  Your API key for authentication

  **Example:** `sk_live_1234567890abcdef`
</ParamField>

<ParamField header="x-organization-id" type="string" required>
  Your organization UUID

  **Example:** `a8315ef3-dd50-43f8-b7ce-d839e68d51fa`
</ParamField>

## Response

## Example

<CodeGroup>
  ```bash cURL theme={"theme":{"light":"github-light","dark":"github-dark"}}
  curl -X DELETE "https://api.dcycle.io/v1/facilities/550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000" \
    -H "x-api-key: ${DCYCLE_API_KEY}" \
    -H "x-organization-id: ${DCYCLE_ORG_ID}"
  ```

  ```python Python theme={"theme":{"light":"github-light","dark":"github-dark"}}
  import requests
  import os

  headers = {
      "x-api-key": os.getenv("DCYCLE_API_KEY"),
      "x-organization-id": os.getenv("DCYCLE_ORG_ID")
  }

  facility_id = "550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000"
  response = requests.delete(
      f"https://api.dcycle.io/v1/facilities/{facility_id}",
      headers=headers
  )

  if response.status_code == 204:
      print("Facility deleted successfully")
  ```

  ```javascript JavaScript theme={"theme":{"light":"github-light","dark":"github-dark"}}
  const axios = require('axios');

  const headers = {
    'x-api-key': process.env.DCYCLE_API_KEY,
    'x-organization-id': process.env.DCYCLE_ORG_ID
  };

  const facilityId = '550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000';
  axios.delete(`https://api.dcycle.io/v1/facilities/${facilityId}`, { headers })
    .then(response => {
      if (response.status === 204) console.log('Facility deleted');
    });
  ```
</CodeGroup>

### Successful Response

```
HTTP/1.1 204 No Content
```

## Common Errors

### 401 Unauthorized

**Cause:** Missing or invalid API key

```json theme={"theme":{"light":"github-light","dark":"github-dark"}}
{"detail": "Invalid API key for organization", "code": "INVALID_API_KEY"}
```

### 403 Forbidden

**Cause:** The user is not a member of the organization, or facility does not belong to the organization

```json theme={"theme":{"light":"github-light","dark":"github-dark"}}
{"detail": "Logged User is not Member of Organization", "code": "LOGGED_USER_NOT_MEMBER"}
```

```json theme={"theme":{"light":"github-light","dark":"github-dark"}}
{
  "detail": "Facility doesn't belong to organization"
}
```

### 404 Not Found

**Cause:** Facility not found

```json theme={"theme":{"light":"github-light","dark":"github-dark"}}
{
  "code": "NOT_FOUND",
  "detail": "Facility with id=UUID('...') not found"
}
```

## Best Practices

Consider archiving a facility instead of deleting if you want to preserve historical data:

```python theme={"theme":{"light":"github-light","dark":"github-dark"}}
# Archive instead of delete
response = requests.put(
    f"https://api.dcycle.io/v1/facilities/{facility_id}",
    headers=headers,
    json={"status": "archived"}
)
```
