# Use `DeleteGroup` with an AWS SDK or CLI
<a name="xray_example_xray_DeleteGroup_section"></a>

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

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

**AWS CLI**  
**To delete a group**  
The following `delete-group` example deletes the specified group resource.  

```
aws xray delete-group \
    --group-name {{"AdminGroup"}} \
    --group-arn {{"arn:aws:xray:us-east-2:123456789012:group/AdminGroup/123456789"}}
```
This command produces no output.
