Revoke one app API credential by ID and clear its local stored value.

Terminal window
privy credentials delete [options] <credential-id>
Argument Description
credential-id —
Option Description
--dry-run Validate and print the API request without network access or credentials.
--yes Confirm this mutation or export.
--body <json> JSON body, or - to read stdin.
--file <path> JSON body file, or - to read stdin.
--allow-production Explicitly allow this production mutation; also requires --yes.

Global options such as --app, --account and --profile also apply. See the command reference overview.

Terminal window
privy credentials delete <credential-id> --yes
  • Changes data: yes. Preview with --dry-run, then run with --yes and any required confirmations.
  • Scope: app
  • Before it runs: Check environment and current same-app key metadata; explicit access mode for creation.
  • Production apps: Requires --allow-production and --yes.
  • Verification: One-time secret handled according to the explicit storage choice before fresh metadata comparison; deletion verified by absence.
  • Retries: None.
  • Caution: Deletion breaks consumers. Creation never automatically deletes old keys. Store failures after creation require inspecting the reported reference, not recreating blindly.
