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

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

Action examples are code excerpts from larger programs and must be run in context. You can see this action in context in the following code examples:

#### [ CLI ]

**AWS CLI**  
**To delete a named query**  
The following `delete-named-query` example deletes the named query that has the specified ID.  

```
aws athena delete-named-query \
    --named-query-id {{a1b2c3d4-5678-90ab-cdef-EXAMPLE11111}}
```
This command produces no output.
