# Deleting an application

> Revoke an application's credentials and immediately cut off API access for any connected external system — subject to your deployment's data retention and compliance policies.

<Warning>
  Deleting an application **revokes access to all connected services immediately.** Any systems using these credentials will lose access to the platform. The application record may be retained for audit, regulatory, or compliance purposes, subject to your deployment's data retention policies.
</Warning>

To delete an application, follow these steps:

<Steps>
  <Step>
    From the **Applications** page, find the application you want to delete.
  </Step>

  <Step>
    Click the three dots (<Icon icon="ellipsis-vertical" />) in the **Actions** column and select **Delete**.
  </Step>

  <Step>
    A confirmation dialog appears asking you to confirm the deletion.
  </Step>

  <Step>
    Click **Yes, delete it** to confirm.
  </Step>

  <Step>
    The application's credentials are invalidated immediately and the application is removed from active listings, subject to your deployment's data retention and compliance policies.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Note>
  Default applications (such as the Lerian Console application) are protected and cannot be deleted.
