# Delete Data with FastAPI
Let's now add a *path operation* to delete a hero.
This is quite straightforward. 😁
## Delete Path Operation
Because we want to **delete** data, we use an HTTP `DELETE` operation.
We get a `hero_id` from the path parameter and verify if it exists, just as we did when reading a single hero or when updating it, **possibly raising an error** with a `404` response.
And if we actually find a hero, we just delete it with the **session**.
```Python hl_lines="3-11"
# Code above omitted 👆
{!./docs_src/tutorial/fastapi/delete/tutorial001.py[ln:91-99]!}
# Code below omitted 👇
```

```Python

```
///
After deleting it successfully, we just return a response of:
```JSON
{
"ok": true
}
```
## Recap
That's it, feel free to try it out in the interactive docs UI to delete some heroes. 💥
Using **FastAPI** to read data and combining it with **SQLModel** makes it quite straightforward to delete data from the database.
