# DeleteRedirect

# Namespace: RedirectsService

# Method link: https://dev.wix.com/docs/api-reference/business-management/seo/redirects/redirect-v1/delete-redirect.md

## Introduction

Deletes a redirect by ID.

The response is empty. Deleting a redirect can't be undone, so retrieve it first if you might
need to recreate it.

A redirect scoped to a language stops taking effect but can still appear in [List Redirects](https://dev.wix.com/docs/api-reference/business-management/seo/redirects/redirect-v1/list-redirects.md).

To delete multiple redirects in a single API call, call [Bulk Delete Redirects](https://dev.wix.com/docs/api-reference/business-management/seo/redirects/redirect-v1/bulk-delete-redirects.md).
