# DeleteResponseHeadersPolicy
<a name="API_DeleteResponseHeadersPolicy"></a>

Deletes a response headers policy.

You cannot delete a response headers policy if it's attached to a cache behavior. First update your distributions to remove the response headers policy from all cache behaviors, then delete the response headers policy.

To delete a response headers policy, you must provide the policy's identifier and version. To get these values, you can use `ListResponseHeadersPolicies` or `GetResponseHeadersPolicy`.
