# Delete Squid Chain

> Remove the chain configuration from a squid

Removes the chain configuration from a squid. The source and target squids themselves are not deleted — only the link between them.

## Path Parameters

<ParamField path="id" type="string" required>
  Hash ID of the source squid. Example: `"e86b29c032024b66aff529e1d43c2bd7"`
</ParamField>

## Headers

<ParamField header="Authorization" type="string" required>
  Your API authentication token. Value: `Token YOUR_API_KEY`
</ParamField>

## Code Examples

<CodeGroup>
  ```bash cURL theme={null}
  curl -X DELETE "https://api.lobstr.io/v1/squids/e86b29c032024b66aff529e1d43c2bd7/chain" \
    -H "Authorization: Token YOUR_API_KEY"
  ```

  ```python Python theme={null}
  import requests

  url = "https://api.lobstr.io/v1/squids/e86b29c032024b66aff529e1d43c2bd7/chain"
  headers = {"Authorization": "Token YOUR_API_KEY"}

  response = requests.delete(url, headers=headers)
  # 204 No Content on success
  ```
</CodeGroup>

## Response

```
