DELETE/v1/memory_stores/{memory_store_id}/memories/{memory_id}

Delete a memory

Parameters

--memory-store-id: string⁠Path

The ID of the memory store that holds the memory (memstore_...).

--memory-id: string⁠Path

The ID of the memory to delete (mem_...).

--expected-content-sha256: optional string⁠Query

Delete the memory only if its current content_sha256 equals this value, given as 64 lowercase hexadecimal characters. Omit it to delete unconditionally.

If the hashes differ, the request fails with HTTP status 409 and nothing is deleted.

--beta: optional array of AnthropicBeta⁠Header

Optional header to specify the beta version(s) you want to use.

--workspace-id: optional string⁠Header

Optional header to select the Workspace for this request. The value is a Workspace ID (for example, wrkspc_011CZkZaBF1tNoB5wlCeusgy).

Only needed for credentials that can act on more than one Workspace. A credential that belongs to a specific Workspace may omit it; if sent, it must match that Workspace.

Returns

beta_managed_agents_deleted_memory: object{ type: "memory_deleted", id }
