# Delete Personal Token

Source: https://userguide.qualytics.io/settings/access-tokens/personal-token/managing/delete-token/

Use the Delete action to permanently remove a Personal Access Token. Once deleted, the token cannot be recovered.

> **Note**
>
> You can only delete **revoked** or **expired** tokens. Active tokens must be [revoked](https://userguide.qualytics.io/settings/access-tokens/personal-token/managing/revoke-token/) first before they can be deleted. Expired tokens can be deleted right away, without revoking them first.

> **Info: Permissions**
>
> Any user with at least the **Member** role can delete their own Personal Tokens. See the [Permissions](https://userguide.qualytics.io/settings/access-tokens/personal-token/deep-dive/permissions/) page for details.

> **Warning: Side Effects**
>
> Deletion is permanent and cannot be undone. Any external system or webhook using this token stops working immediately. If you only want to disable API access temporarily, use [Revoke](https://userguide.qualytics.io/settings/access-tokens/personal-token/managing/revoke-token/) instead.

## Steps

**Step 1:** In the token list, find the revoked or expired token that you want to delete and click the **vertical ellipsis**  at the right end of its row, after the status badge. If your account shows the **Personal** and **Service** tabs, your tokens are on the **Personal**  tab.

**Step 2:** A dropdown menu opens. Its options depend on the token's status: a **Revoked** token offers **Restore**  and **Delete** , and an **Expired** token offers only **Delete** . An **Active** token offers only **Revoke** , so it has no Delete option until you revoke it.

**Step 3:** Click **Delete**  from the dropdown menu.

**Step 4:** The **Delete Token** dialog opens. It shows the token name with its expiration line (**Expired on** and the date, **Expires on** and the date, or **This token never expires**), asks **Are you sure you want to proceed?**, and warns that any external system or webhook using this token stops working immediately and that the action cannot be undone. Click **Delete** in the bottom right corner of the dialog to confirm, or **Cancel** to keep the token.

**Step 5:** The dialog closes and a success notification confirms **"The User token has been successfully deleted"**. The token is removed from the list.
