# Method name: deletePolicy(policyId: string)

# Method package: wixEventsV2

# Method menu location: wixEventsV2 --> policies --> deletePolicy

# Method Link: https://dev.wix.com/docs/velo/apis/wix-events-v2/policies/delete-policy.md

# Method Description:

Permanently deletes a policy.


<!--
> Note: This function is restricted and only runs if you elevate permissions using the [wix-auth.elevate()](https://www.wix.com/velo/reference/wix-auth/elevate) function.
-->

The `deletePolicy()` function returns a Promise that resolves when the specified policy is deleted.

Deleted policies are not returned by the `getPolicy()` or `queryPolicies()` functions.



# Method Code Examples:

*** Note: do not assume any prop names or enum values other than the ones in the example.

## Delete Policy (dashboard page code)

```javascript
import { policies } from 'wix-events.v2';

//define policy ID
const policyId = '0907cf78-5177-4482-a627-b17ef06badec';

//delete policy
function myDeletePolicyFunction(){
   try {
     return policies.deletePolicy(policyId);
   } 
   catch (error) {
     console.error(error);
     // Handle the error
   }
 };

// Returns void

```

## Delete Policy (export from backend code)

```javascript
import { Permissions, webMethod } from 'wix-web-module';
import { policies } from 'wix-events.v2';
import * as wixAuth from 'wix-auth';

//define policy ID
const policyId = '0907cf78-5177-4482-a627-b17ef06badec';

export const elevatedDeletePolicyFunction = webMethod(Permissions.Anyone, () => {
  const elevatedDeletePolicy = wixAuth.elevate(policies.deletePolicy);
  try {
    return elevatedDeletePolicy(policyId);
  } catch (error) {
    console.error(error);
    // Handle the error
  }
});

/* Promise resolves to void */

```
