--- id: delete title: 'Delete data: delete()' slug: /delete custom_edit_url: https://github.com/supabase/supabase/edit/master/spec/supabase_js_v2_legacy.yml --- import Tabs from '@theme/Tabs' import TabItem from '@theme/TabItem' Performs a DELETE on the table. ```js const { data, error } = await supabase .from('cities') .delete() .match({ id: 666 }) ``` ## Parameters ## Notes - `delete()` should always be combined with [filters](/docs/reference/javascript/using-filters) to target the item(s) you wish to delete. - If you use `delete()` with filters and you have [RLS](/docs/learn/auth-deep-dive/auth-row-level-security) enabled, only rows visible through `SELECT` policies are deleted. Note that by default no rows are visible, so you need at least one `SELECT`/`ALL` policy that makes the rows visible. ## Examples ### Delete records ```js const { data, error } = await supabase .from('cities') .delete() .match({ id: 666 }) ```
