Deleting and restoring a package

Learn how to delete or restore a package.

Package deletion and restoration support on GitHub

On GitHub if you have the required access, you can delete:

Note

On GitHub, you can also restore an entire package or package version, if:

Packages API support

You can use the REST API to manage your packages. For more information, see the REST API endpoints for packages.

Note

The ability for GitHub Actions workflows to delete and restore packages using the REST API is currently in public preview and subject to change.

With registries that support granular permissions, you can use a GITHUB_TOKEN in a GitHub Actions workflow to delete or restore packages using the REST API. The token must have admin permission to the package. If your workflow publishes a package, the admin role is granted by default to the repository where the workflow is stored. For existing packages not published by a workflow, you need to grant the repository the admin role to be able to use a GitHub Actions workflow to delete or restore packages using the REST API. For more information, see Configuring a package's access control and visibility.

For certain registries, you can use GraphQL to delete a version of a private package.

You cannot use the GitHub Packages GraphQL API with registries that support granular permissions. For the registries that only support repository-scoped permissions, and can be used with the GraphQL API, see About permissions for GitHub Packages.

Required permissions to delete or restore a package

With registries that support granular permissions, you can choose to allow packages to be scoped to a user or an organization, or linked to a repository.

To delete a package that has granular permissions separate from a repository, such as container images stored at https://ghcr.io/NAMESPACE/PACKAGE-NAME or packages stored at https://npm.pkg.github.com/NAMESPACE/PACKAGE-NAME (where NAMESPACE is the name of the personal account or organization to which the package is scoped), you must have admin access to the package. For more information, see About permissions for GitHub Packages.

For packages that inherit their access permissions from repositories, you can delete a package if you have admin permissions to the repository.

Some registries only support repository-scoped packages. For a list of these registries, see About permissions for GitHub Packages.

Deleting a package version Deleting a version of a repository-scoped package on GitHub

To delete a version of a repository-scoped package, you must have admin permissions to the repository in which the package is published. For more information, see Required permissions.

  1. On GitHub, navigate to the main page of the repository.

  2. In the right sidebar of your repository, click Packages.

  3. Search for and then click the name of the package that you want to manage.

  4. Under the "Recent Versions" list of packages, click View and manage all versions.

  5. In the list of packages, find the version of the package that you want to delete.

  6. To confirm deletion, type the package name and click I understand the consequences, delete this version.

Deleting a version of a repository-scoped package with GraphQL

For certain registries, you can use GraphQL to delete a version of a private package.

You cannot use the GitHub Packages GraphQL API with registries that support granular permissions. For the registries that only support repository-scoped permissions, and can be used with the GraphQL API, see About permissions for GitHub Packages. For information on using the REST API instead, see the REST API endpoints for packages.

Use the deletePackageVersion mutation in the GraphQL API. You must use a personal access token (classic) with the read:packages, delete:packages, and repo scopes. For more information about personal access tokens (classic), see Introduction to GitHub Packages.

The following example demonstrates how to delete a package version, using a packageVersionId of MDIyOlJlZ2lzdHJ5UGFja2FnZVZlcnNpb243MTExNg.

curl -X POST \
-H "Accept: application/vnd.github.package-deletes-preview+json" \
-H "Authorization: bearer TOKEN" \
-d '{"query":"mutation { deletePackageVersion(input:{packageVersionId:\"MDIyOlJlZ2lzdHJ5UGFja2FnZVZlcnNpb243MTExNg==\"}) { success }}"}' \
HOSTNAME/graphql

To find all of the private packages you have published to GitHub Packages, along with the version IDs for the packages, you can use the packages connection through the repository object. You will need a personal access token (classic) with the read:packages and repo scopes. For more information, see the packages connection or the PackageOwner interface.

For more information about the deletePackageVersion mutation, see Mutations.

You cannot directly delete an entire package using GraphQL, but if you delete every version of a package, the package will no longer show on GitHub.

Deleting a version of a user-scoped package on GitHub

Restoring packages

You can restore a deleted package or version if:

For example, if you're the user octocat, and you have a deleted RubyGems package named my-package that was scoped to the repo octocat/my-repo, then you can only restore the package if the package namespace rubygem.pkg.github.com/octocat/my-repo/my-package is still available, and 30 days have not yet passed.

To restore a deleted package, you must also meet one of these permission requirements:

For more information, see Required permissions.

Once the package is restored, the package will use the same namespace it did before. If the same package namespace is not available, you will not be able to restore your package. In this scenario, to restore the deleted package, you must delete the new package that uses the deleted package's namespace first.

Restoring a package in an organization
