# Delete a secret

`DELETE https://api.morevoice.ai/v1/secrets/{name}`

Flows that still reference {{secret.NAME}} then get an empty value. Needs a live key.

Authenticate with a secret API key: `Authorization: Bearer $MOREVOICE_API_KEY`.

Operation ID: `secrets_delete`.

## Parameters

### Path parameters

| Name | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `name` | `string` | yes | The secret's name. |

### Headers

| Name | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `MoreVoice-Version` | `string` | no | The API version to use for this request. Defaults to the version the API key is pinned to. |
| `Idempotency-Key` | `string` | no | A unique key (for example a UUID) that makes this request safe to retry: for 24 hours, a retry with the same key and parameters returns the first response instead of acting twice. |

## Responses

### 409 Conflict
