# Delete a calendar

> **DELETE** `https://api.us.nylas.com/v3/grants/{grant_id}/calendars/{calendar_id}`

Source: https://developer.nylas.com/docs/reference/api/calendar/delete-calendars-id/

Deletes the specified calendar. You _cannot_ delete the primary calendar associated with an
account (`"is_primary": true`).

**Authentication:** NYLAS_API_KEY, ACCESS_TOKEN

## Parameters

### Path parameters

| Name | Type | Required | Description |
|------|------|----------|-------------|
| `grant_id` | string | Yes | ID of the grant to access. Use `/me/` to refer to the grant associated with an access token. |
| `calendar_id` | string | Yes | ID of the calendar to access. You can use `primary` to refer to the primary calendar associated with a grant. Nylas recommends you URL-encode this field, or you might receive a [`404` error](/docs/api/errors/400-response/) if the ID contains special characters (for example, `#`). |
