# Delete Embedder Endpoint

> Remove an embedder configuration.

    Permanently removes the specified embedder from the system. This removes
    both the cached instance and the configuration, so the embedder cannot
    be used until it is added again. The change is persisted to the
    configuration file.

    This operation is useful for:
    - Removing embedders that are no longer needed
    - Clearing failed embedders before adding a corrected configuration
    - Freeing resources used by unused embedders

    Returns 404 if the embedder does not exist.
