+This article outlines how to delete your CluedIn instance if you no longer want to use it. Note that all data that you have in CluedIn will be permanently deleted. Therefore, consider making [backups](/deployment/infra-how-tos/ama-backup) if needed.
+
+## Delete CluedIn PaaS
+
+If you no longer want to use CluedIn PaaS or if the installation of CluedIn PaaS failed, you can delete the instance. Deleting CluedIn PaaS instance will reset your CluedIn license. It means that you can [install](/deployment/azure-marketplace/step-3) CluedIn again using the same license key.
+
+There are two ways to delete the CluedIn PaaS instance:
+
+- Delete the resource group where you installed CluedIn.
+
+- Delete the managed application within the resource group where you installed CluedIn.
+
+### Delete resource group
+
+1. In the [Azure portal](https://portal.azure.com/), navigate to the resource group where you installed CluedIn.
+
+1. At the top of the page, select **Delete resource group**.
+
+    ![delete-paas-delete-resource-group.png](../../assets/images/deployment/delete-cluedin-instance/delete-paas-delete-resource-group.png)
+
+1. Confirm the deletion by typing the name of the resource group.
+
+### Delete managed application
+
+1. In the [Azure portal](https://portal.azure.com/), navigate to the resource group where you installed CluedIn, and then find the corresponding managed application.
+
+    ![delete-paas-resource-group.png](../../assets/images/deployment/delete-cluedin-instance/delete-paas-resource-group.png)
+
+1. Open the managed application that you want to delete.
