# Delete A Conversation
> Delete user and group conversations with the CometChat JavaScript SDK.
In case you want to delete a conversation, you can use the `deleteConversation()` method.
This method takes two parameters. The unique id (UID/GUID) of the conversation to be deleted & the type (user/group) of conversation to be deleted.
```javascript theme={null}
// Delete user conversation
await CometChat.deleteConversation("UID", "user");
// Delete group conversation
await CometChat.deleteConversation("GUID", "group");
```
**Note:** Deletes only for the logged-in user. Use [REST API](https://api-explorer.cometchat.com/reference/resets-user-conversation) to delete for all participants.
This operation is irreversible. Deleted conversations cannot be recovered for the logged-in user.
Use `deleteConversation()` to delete a conversation for the logged-in user.
```typescript theme={null}
let UID: string = "UID";
let type: string = "user";
CometChat.deleteConversation(UID, type).then(
(deletedConversation: string) => {
console.log(deletedConversation);
}, (error: CometChat.CometChatException) => {
console.log('error while deleting a conversation', error);
}
);
```
```javascript theme={null}
let UID = "UID";
let type = "user";
CometChat.deleteConversation(UID, type).then(
deletedConversation => {
console.log(deletedConversation);
}, error => {
console.log('error while deleting a conversation', error);
}
);
```
```typescript theme={null}
let GUID: string = "GUID";
let type: string = "group";
CometChat.deleteConversation(GUID, type).then(
(deletedConversation: string) => {
console.log(deletedConversation);
}, (error: CometChat.CometChatException) => {
console.log('error while deleting a conversation', error);
}
);
```
```javascript theme={null}
let GUID = "GUID";
let type = "group";
CometChat.deleteConversation(GUID, type).then(
deletedConversation => {
console.log(deletedConversation);
}, error => {
console.log('error while deleting a conversation', error);
}
);
```
This method deletes the conversation only for the logged-in user. To delete a conversation for all the users of the conversation, please refer to our REST API documentation [here](https://api-explorer.cometchat.com/reference/resets-user-conversation).
The `deleteConversation()` method takes the following parameters:
| Parameter | Description | Required |
| ---------------- | ----------------------------------------- | -------- |
| conversationWith | UID or GUID of the conversation to delete | Yes |
| conversationType | `user` or `group` | Yes |
On success, returns a confirmation message string.
