# listings_delete

> Permanently delete a listing.

<!-- Source: https://docs.actuallycare.com/tools/listings/listings_delete -->

Permanently delete a listing. This is IRREVERSIBLE — the listing will be hidden from all views, including archived. Only use for test data or duplicate records. For normal cleanup, use [`listings_archive`](/tools/listings/listings_archive) instead which is reversible. Returns confirmation of the deletion.

## Parameters

| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `listing_id` | string | Yes | UUID of the listing to delete. Use [`listings_get`](/tools/listings/listings_get) first to verify. · Format: UUID |

## Example prompts

- "Permanently delete the duplicate listing record for 412 Birchwood Ln."
- "Remove that test listing for good, but double-check with me before deleting it permanently."

## Safety

**Irreversible.** This action cannot be undone. Claude should always confirm with you before running it.
