# Delete entity

> Delete an entity

## Overview

`useDeleteEntity` returns a function that deletes an entity. If called from inside an `EntityProvider`, the provider's entity state is set to `undefined` after deletion.

## Usage Example

```tsx theme={null}
import { useDeleteEntity } from "@replyke/react-js";

function DeleteButton({ entityId }: { entityId: string }) {
  const deleteEntity = useDeleteEntity();

  const handleDelete = async () => {
    await deleteEntity({ entityId });
    console.log("Deleted");
  };

  return <button onClick={handleDelete}>Delete</button>;
}
```

## Parameters

<ParamField path="entityId" type="string" required>
  The ID of the entity to delete.
</ParamField>

## Returns

`Promise<void>` — resolves when the entity is deleted.
