# Delete Custom Fields Using BoldSign API
When you no longer need a specific custom field, BoldSign allows you to delete it via API. To delete a custom field using the BoldSign API, you will need the `customFieldId` of the field you wish to remove. You can get the ID of the custom field by listing your custom fields using the API. Refer to this for [listing custom fields](https://developers.boldsign.com/custom-field/list-custom-field/?region=us)

Below are examples of how to delete the created custom form field :

## Code snippet

cURL

```shell 
curl --location --request DELETE 'https://api.boldsign.com/v1/customField/delete?customFieldId={customFieldId}' \
--header 'Accept: application/json;odata.metadata=minimal;odata.streaming=true' \
 -H 'X-API-KEY: {your api key}' \

```

C#
```csharp
   var apiClient = new ApiClient("https://api.boldsign.com", "{{apiKey}}");
   var customFieldClient = new CustomFieldClient(apiClient);
   var customFieldId = "your-custom-field-id";
   var deleteResponse = customFieldClient.DeleteCustomField(customFieldId);
   Console.WriteLine(deleteResponse);

```
Python
```python
import requests

url = "https://api.boldsign.com/v1/customField/delete?customFieldId=<string>"

payload = {}
headers = {
  'Accept': 'application/json;odata.metadata=minimal;odata.streaming=true',
    "X-API-KEY": "{your api key}"

}

response = requests.request("DELETE", url, headers=headers, data=payload)

print(response.text)


```
NodeJS
```js
const axios = require('axios');

let config = {
  method: 'delete',
  maxBodyLength: Infinity,
  url: 'https://api.boldsign.com/v1/customField/delete?customFieldId=<string>',
  headers: { 
    'Accept': 'application/json;odata.metadata=minimal;odata.streaming=true', 
    'X-API-KEY': '{your api key}'
  }
};

axios.request(config)
.then((response) => {
  console.log(JSON.stringify(response.data));
})
.catch((error) => {
  console.log(error);
});
```


PHP

```php
<?php
require 'vendor/autoload.php'; 

use GuzzleHttp\Client;
use GuzzleHttp\Exception\RequestException;


$client = new GuzzleHttp\Client([ 'verify' => false, ]);

$apiKey = 'your_actual_api_key'; 
$customFieldId = 'your_custom_field_id'; 


$headers = [
    'Accept' => 'application/json;odata.metadata=minimal;odata.streaming=true',
   'X-API-KEY' => $apiKey, 
];

$requestUri = "https://api.boldsign.com/v1/customField/delete?customFieldId={$customFieldId}";

try {

    $request = new \GuzzleHttp\Psr7\Request('DELETE', $requestUri, $headers);


    $response = $client->sendAsync($request)->wait();

    echo $response->getBody();
} catch (RequestException $e) {

    echo 'Request failed: ' . $e->getMessage();
}


```
