# Delete User

DELETE /api/v2/projects/{projectId}/analytics/user/{distinctId}

Erases a user's stored identify properties for GDPR-style deletion requests. Scope is narrow and worth noting: it clears the identify record only. Tracked events stay, and the CRM contact is untouched (use Delete Contact for that). The delete runs as an asynchronous job, so the user can still surface in queries for a short window after this returns 200.

## Request

- projectId: string, path, required — ID of the project the user belongs to.
- distinctId: string, path, required — Distinct ID of the user whose analytics data to erase.

  - message: string, required
