# Delete API token

DELETE https://%7BYour_Space_Name%7D.signalwire.com/api/project/tokens/{token_id}

Permanently revokes and deletes a project API token. Use it when a server-side credential has been exposed, retired, or replaced; clients using Chat, PubSub, Room, or Subscriber Tokens require the corresponding service-specific token lifecycle instead. For the account-scoped Compatibility API route, use [Delete an API Token](/docs/compatibility-api/rest/tokens/delete-token).

#### Permissions

With a project API token, the token must have the following scope(s) enabled to make a successful request: _Management_.

With a [Personal access token](/docs/apis/authorization#personal-access-tokens) there are no scopes. The token holder must be an owner or admin of the space, and the request reaches only the projects the holder is enabled for, plus their subprojects.

[Learn more about API scopes](/docs/platform/your-signalwire-api-space).

## Authentication

- `Authorization` header (basic auth, required) — SignalWire Basic Authentication using Project ID and API Token. The client sends HTTP requests with the Authorization header containing the word Basic followed by a space and a base64-encoded string of project_id:token. The project ID will be used as the username and the API token as the password. Example: ``` Authorization: Basic base64(project_id:token) ```
- `Authorization` header (basic auth, required) — Personal access token authentication for space-wide administration. Send HTTP Basic auth with an empty username and the Personal access token as the password. A Personal access token carries your own authority rather than a project's: it is created from your user menu in the Dashboard, is prefixed `pat_`, and has no scopes. The holder must be an owner or admin of the space named by the subdomain, and the token acts only on that space. Example: ``` Authorization: Basic base64(:pat_...) ```
