# Delete User

You can delete the [ end users](https://docs.catalyst.zoho.com/en/cloud-scale/help/authentication/user-management/users/introduction/) of a Catalyst
application to remove their access to it permanently.

This is done using the `deleteUser()` method. You must pass the
**UserID** of the user as the parameter to this method as shown below.

#### Sample Code Snippet

```java
import com.zc.component.users.ZCUser;

```

```java
ZCUser.getInstance().deleteUser(1510000000109587l); //Pass the UserID of the user to be deleted

```
