# Delete a customer group

URL: https://docs.sparklayer.io/developers/api/core/delete-customer-group
Operation: `DELETE /api/v1/customer-groups/{slug}` (operationId `deleteCustomerGroup`)
OpenAPI spec: https://docs.sparklayer.io/openapi/core.yaml

Deletes a customer group, along with any settings specific to it, and returns `204`. You can't delete a group that's still assigned to customers: this returns `400` (`resource-in-use`). An unknown slug returns `400` (`resource-id-not-found`).

`DELETE /api/v1/customer-groups/{slug}`

**Base URLs:** `https://app.sparklayer.io` (Live), `https://test.app.sparklayer.io` (Test)

**Authentication:** send `Authorization: Bearer <access_token>` and `Site-Id: <site id>` with every request. Get the token from [Get an access token](https://docs.sparklayer.io/developers/api/core/get-an-access-token.md); see [Authentication](https://docs.sparklayer.io/developers/authentication.md).
