# Delete Conversation

> Learn how to delete user and group conversations from the logged-in user's conversation list using the CometChat Flutter SDK.

<Accordion title="AI Integration Quick Reference">
  ```dart theme={null}
  // Delete a user conversation
  await CometChat.deleteConversation(
    "UID",
    CometChatConversationType.user,
    onSuccess: (String message) => debugPrint("Deleted: $message"),
    onError: (CometChatException e) => debugPrint("Error: ${e.message}"),
  );

  // Delete a group conversation
  await CometChat.deleteConversation(
    "GUID",
    CometChatConversationType.group,
    onSuccess: (String message) => debugPrint("Deleted: $message"),
    onError: (CometChatException e) => debugPrint("Error: ${e.message}"),
  );
  ```

  **Note:** Deletes only for the logged-in user. Use [REST API](https://api-explorer.cometchat.com/reference/deletes-conversation) to delete for all participants.
</Accordion>

<Warning>
  This operation is irreversible. Deleted conversations cannot be recovered. All messages in the conversation will be removed from the user's view.
</Warning>

Use `deleteConversation()` to delete a conversation for the logged-in user.

<Note>
  **Available via:** SDK | [REST API](https://api-explorer.cometchat.com) | [UI Kits](/ui-kit/flutter/overview)
</Note>

This method takes two parameters: the unique id (`UID`/`GUID`) of the conversation to be deleted and the type (`user`/`group`) of conversation to be deleted.

<Tabs>
  <Tab title="Delete User Conversation">
    ```dart theme={null}
    String conversationWith = "UID";
    String conversationType = CometChatConversationType.user;
    await CometChat.deleteConversation(conversationWith, conversationType,
       onSuccess: (String str){
         debugPrint("Conversation deleted successfully at : $str");
       },
       onError: (CometChatException e){
         debugPrint("Conversation deletion failed : ${e.message}");
      	}
    );
    ```
  </Tab>

  <Tab title="Delete Group Conversation">
    ```dart theme={null}
    String conversationWith = "GUID";
    String conversationType = CometChatConversationType.group;
    await CometChat.deleteConversation(conversationWith, conversationType,
       onSuccess: (String str){
         debugPrint("Conversation deleted successfully at : $str");
       },
       onError: (CometChatException e){
         debugPrint("Conversation deletion failed : ${e.message}");
      	}
    ); 
    ```
  </Tab>
