# Delete an experiment template
<a name="delete-template"></a>

If you no longer need an experiment template, you can delete it. When you delete an experiment template, any running experiments that use the template are not affected. The experiment continues to run until completed or stopped. However, experiment templates that are deleted are not available for viewing from the **Experiments** page in the console.
