# DeletePrivateConnect

## 1. API Description

This API (DeletePrivateConnect) is used to delete Private Connect

{% hint style="info" %}
**Notes**

* Deleting a Private Connect suspends the related business (i.e. the network becomes unreachable) -- proceed with caution.
* After a Private Connect is deleted, the system retains the resource for a period of time -- see [Private Connect Billing Information](https://docs.console.zenlayer.com/welcome/pricing/cloud-networking-pricing#deletion-2) for the retention period. During this retention period, the resource status will be **RECYCLED**. You can call [RenewPrivateConnect](/api-reference/networking/sdn/private-connect/renewprivateconnect.md) to restore it during this period.
* This is an asynchronous API. After the delete request is successfully submitted, the delete operation is not completed immediately. During this period the Private Connect status will be **DELETEING**; once deleted successfully, the status will change to **RECYCLED**.
* No further changes can be made to a Private Connect after it is deleted.
* After deletion, you can restore the deleted Private Connect via [RenewPrivateConnect](/api-reference/networking/sdn/private-connect/renewprivateconnect.md), or permanently destroy it via [DestroyPrivateConnect](/api-reference/networking/sdn/private-connect/destroyprivateconnect.md).
