How It Works​

The Delete Voice node permanently removes a voice. When executed, the node:

  1. Validates that a voice ID is provided
  2. Either uses the provided connection or creates a new client with direct API key
  3. Calls the ElevenLabs API to delete the voice
  4. Removes the voice from your account

Requirements​

  • Valid ElevenLabs API key (via Connect node or direct option)
  • Valid voice ID of a custom voice
  • You can only delete custom voices, not pre-made ElevenLabs voices

Error Handling​

The node will return specific errors in the following cases:

  • Missing voice ID - "Voice ID cannot be empty. Please provide a valid ElevenLabs voice ID."
  • Deletion failure - "Failed to delete voice: [error details]"

Usage Notes​

  • This action is permanent and cannot be undone
  • Can only delete custom voices that you've created or cloned
  • Pre-made ElevenLabs voices cannot be deleted
  • After deletion, the voice_id becomes invalid and cannot be used
  • Any automations using the deleted voice will fail
  • Consider backing up voice information before deletion
  • Deleting a voice frees up space in your voice library
  • Make sure no active workflows are using the voice before deletion

Example Use Cases​

  • Cleaning up unused or test voices
  • Managing voice library quota
  • Removing outdated voice versions
  • Freeing space for new custom voices
  • Removing experimental or low-quality voices
  • Managing voice costs by removing unused voices
