# Delete a webhook endpoint

> The webhook_endpoints.delete operation: DELETE /api/v1/webhook_endpoints/{id} in the REST API and the webhook_endpoints_delete tool in the MCP server.

Deletes an endpoint and its signing secret for good. Nothing more is sent to it: deliveries waiting for a
retry are canceled instead of sent. Its delivery log stays readable with `webhook_deliveries.list`. To pause
an endpoint instead, set `enabled: false` with `webhook_endpoints.update`.
