# influx org delete

-   InfluxDB OSS only

#### Works with InfluxDB OSS 2.x

The `influx org delete` command works with **InfluxDB OSS 2.x**, but does

## Examples

#### Authentication credentials

The examples below assume your InfluxDB **host**, **organization**, and **token** are provided by either the [active `influx` CLI configuration](/influxdb/cloud/reference/cli/influx/#provide-required-authentication-credentials) or by environment variables (`INFLUX_HOST`, `INFLUX_ORG`, and `INFLUX_TOKEN`). If you do not have a CLI configuration set up or the environment variables set, include these required credentials for each command with the following flags:

-   `--host`: [InfluxDB host](/influxdb/cloud/reference/urls/)
-   `-o, --org` or `--org-id`: InfluxDB organization name or ID
-   `-t, --token`: InfluxDB API token

##### Delete an organization

```sh
influx org delete --id 0Xx0oox00XXoxxoo1
```
