## Available Actions

1. **Delete a Client Program via the Action dropdown menu.**
   * You may want to use the filters covered in "View Client List" guide to narrow your list data.
   * After confirming the Client Program you would like to delete, scroll all the way to the far right side of the list until the Action Column is visible (You may want to hide columns on the list using the Table Filter to make sure you are clicking the right Client's action dropdown menu). Click the three dots present under the Action Column in the row of the Program you would like to delete. This will open the action dropdown menu. Select the "Delete program" option.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://compassly.gitbook.io/compassly-docs/core-modules/clients/programs/delete-program.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
