# Use `DeleteCustomActionType` with a CLI
<a name="codepipeline_example_codepipeline_DeleteCustomActionType_section"></a>

The following code examples show how to use `DeleteCustomActionType`.

------
#### [ CLI ]

**AWS CLI**  
**To delete a custom action**  
This example deletes a custom action in AWS CodePipeline by using an already-created JSON file (here named DeleteMyCustomAction.json) that contains the action type, provider name, and version number of the action to be deleted. Use the list-action-types command to view the correct values for category, version, and provider.  
Command:  

```
aws codepipeline delete-custom-action-type --cli-input-json file://DeleteMyCustomAction.json
```
JSON file sample contents:  

```
{
  "category": "Build",
  "version": "1",
  "provider": "MyJenkinsProviderName"
}
```
Output:  

```
None.
```
