# disconnect

> Disconnects the WebSocket and tears down the current session.

```ts
disconnect(): Promise<void>
```

Disconnects the WebSocket and tears down the current session.

Ends the session and clears its persisted resume state (authorization
state and protocol) and attach records together, so a later
[`connect`](/docs/browser-sdk/v4/reference/signalwire/connect) with the same
credentials starts a fresh session and cannot reattach to the ended
session's calls. Credentials and device preferences are preserved — use
[`resetToDefaults`](/docs/browser-sdk/v4/reference/signalwire/reset-to-defaults)
for a full wipe. To temporarily stop receiving inbound calls while keeping
the session alive, use
[`unregister`](/docs/browser-sdk/v4/reference/signalwire/unregister) instead.

The client can be reconnected by calling
[`connect`](/docs/browser-sdk/v4/reference/signalwire/connect) again, which
creates a fresh transport and session.

## **Examples**

```ts
await client.disconnect();
```
