# Delete Package Versions
This action deletes versions of a package from [GitHub Packages](https://github.com/features/packages).
### What It Can Do
* Delete a single version
* Delete multiple versions
* Delete specific version(s)
* Delete oldest version(s)
* Delete version(s) from a package that is hosted in the same repo that is executing the workflow
* Delete version(s) from a package that is hosted in a different repo than the one executing the workflow
# Usage
```yaml
- uses: actions/delete-package-versions@v1
with:
# Can be a single package version id, or a comma separated list of package version ids.
# Defaults to an empty string.
package-version-ids:
# Owner of the repo hosting the package.
# Defaults to the owner of the repo executing the workflow.
# Required if deleting a version from a package hosted in a different repo than the one executing the workflow.
owner:
# Repo hosting the package.
# Defaults to the repo executing the workflow.
# Required if deleting a version from a package hosted in a different repo than the one executing the workflow.
repo:
# Name of the package.
# Defaults to an empty string.
# Required if `package-version-ids` input is not given.
package-name:
# The number of old versions to delete starting from the oldest version.
# Defaults to 1.
num-old-versions-to-delete:
# The token used to authenticate with GitHub Packages.
# Defaults to github.token.
# Required if deleting a version from a package hosted in a different repo than the one executing the workflow.
# If `package-version-ids` is given the token only needs the delete packages scope.
# If `package-version-ids` is not given the token needs the delete packages scope and the read packages scope

#### Required Inputs
* __package-version-ids:__ Package version ids can be retrieved via the [GitHub GraphQL API][api]
#### Example

### Delete a specific version from a package hosted in a different repo than the workflow
To delete a specific version from a package that is hosted in a different repo than the one executing the workflow the __package-version-ids__, and __token__ inputs are required.
Package version ids can be retrieved via the [GitHub GraphQL API][api].
The [token][token] only needs the delete packages scope. It is recommended [to store the token as a secret][secret]. In this example the [token][token] was stored as a secret named __GITHUB_PAT__.
```yaml
- uses: actions/delete-package-versions@v1
with:
package-version-ids: 'MDE0OlBhY2thZ2VWZXJzaW9uOTcyMDY3'
token: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_PAT }}
```

### Delete multiple specific versions from a package hosted in the same repo as the workflow
To delete multiple specifc versions from a package that is hosted in the same repo that is executing the workflow the __package-version-ids__ input is required.
The __package-version-ids__ input should be a comma separated string of package version ids. Package version ids can be retrieved via the [GitHub GraphQL API][api].
```yaml
- uses: actions/delete-package-versions@v1
with:
package-version-ids: 'MDE0OlBhY2thZ2VWZXJzaW9uOTcyMDY3, MDE0OlBhY2thZ2VWZXJzaW9uOTcyMzQ5, MDE0OlBhY2thZ2VWZXJzaW9uOTcyMzUw'
