# Delete timeline entry

Permanently remove a timeline entry from an event.

Source: https://statusdashboard.com/docs/api/event-management/events/timeline/delete

`DELETE /app/events/{id}/timeline/{statusId}`

Permanently removes a timeline entry. The event's current status, `startTime`, `endTime`, and `resolvedAt` are **not modified** — those fields are stored independently of the timeline array. Removing an entry that your users have already seen on the status dashboard will leave a visible gap in the public timeline history.

The status label of a timeline entry cannot be changed after posting. If the wrong label was used, delete the entry and post a new one with the correct label.
