# Delete a playback ID

DELETE https://api.fastpix.com/v1/on-demand/{mediaId}/playback-ids

This endpoint deletes a specific playback ID associated with a media asset. Deleting a `playback ID` revokes access to the media content linked to that ID.

#### How it works

1. Make a `DELETE` request to this endpoint, replacing `<mediaId>` with the unique ID of the media asset from which you want to delete the playback ID.

2. Include the `playbackId` you want to delete in the request body.

#### Example

Your platform offers limited-time access to premium content. When the subscription expires, you can revoke access to the content by deleting the associated playback ID, preventing users from streaming the video further.
