# DeleteSession


Deletes a session that you ended. You can't delete a session with an `ACTIVE` status. To delete an active session, you must first end it with the [EndSession](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/bedrock/latest/APIReference/API_agent-runtime_EndSession.html) API operation. For more information about sessions, see [Store and retrieve conversation history and context with Amazon Bedrock sessions](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/bedrock/latest/userguide/sessions.html).
