# Delete Resume

> Delete a resume and unlink from applications

## Overview

The Delete Resume endpoint permanently removes a resume. Applications linked to this resume are unlinked (their `cvId` is set to null) but not deleted. If the deleted resume was the default, another resume is automatically promoted.

<Note>
  **Scope required:** `resume:write` | **Rate limit:** 10 requests/min
</Note>

## Request

```bash theme={null}
DELETE /v1/resume/{id}
```

### Example

```bash theme={null}
curl -X DELETE "https://api.mokaru.ai/v1/resume/clx1234" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer mk_your_key"
```

## Response

<ResponseField name="success" type="boolean">Whether the resume was deleted</ResponseField>

```json theme={null}
{
  "success": true
}
```

<Warning>
  This action is permanent. The resume and its associated cover letter are deleted. Applications that were linked to this resume will have their CV reference removed but will not be deleted.
