## Description {#description}

The [`mc idp ldap accesskey rm`](#command-mc.idp.ldap.accesskey.rm) deletes the specified access key from the local server.

[`mc idp ldap accesskey rm`](#command-mc.idp.ldap.accesskey.rm) is also known as [`mc idp ldap accesskey remove`](#command-mc.idp.ldap.accesskey.remove).

This command works against [access keys](/administration/identity-access-management/minio-user-management/#minio-id-access-keys) created by an AD/LDAP user after authenticating to MinIO.

Create AD/LDAP service accounts with the [`mc idp ldap accesskey create`](/reference/minio-mc/mc-idp-ldap-accesskey-create/#command-mc.idp.ldap.accesskey.create) command.

MinIO supports using [AssumeRoleWithLDAPIdentity](/developers/security-token-service/AssumeRoleWithLDAPIdentity/#minio-sts-assumerolewithldapidentity) to generate temporary access keys using the [Security Token Service](/developers/security-token-service/#minio-security-token-service).

**EXAMPLE**

> The following example deletes the access key `mykey` from the `minio` deployment:

```shell
mc idp ldap accesskey rm minio/ mykey
```

**SYNTAX**

The command has the following syntax:

```shell
mc [GLOBALFLAGS] idp ldap accesskey rm              \
                                 ALIAS              \
                                 KEY
```

- Replace `ALIAS` with the [alias](/reference/minio-mc/mc-alias-set/#alias) of a MinIO deployment configured for AD/LDAP integration.
- Replace `KEY` with the access key to delete.

- Brackets `[]` indicate optional parameters.
- Parameters sharing a line are mutually dependent.
- Parameters separated using the pipe `|` operator are mutually exclusive.

Copy the example to a text editor and modify as-needed before running the command in the terminal/shell.

### Parameters {#parameters}

##### `ALIAS` {#mc.idp.ldap.accesskey.remove.ALIAS}

*mc-cmd*

*Required*

The [alias](/reference/minio-mc/mc-alias-set/#alias) of the MinIO deployment configured for AD/LDAP.

For example:

```text
mc idp ldap accesskey ls minio
```

##### `KEY` {#mc.idp.ldap.accesskey.remove.KEY}

*mc-cmd*

*Required*

The configured access key to delete.

### Example {#example}

```shell
mc idp ldap accesskey rm minio/ mykey
```

### Global Flags {#global-flags}

This command supports any of the [global flags](/reference/minio-mc/#minio-mc-global-options).

## Behavior {#behavior}

### S3 Compatibility {#s3-compatibility}

The **`mc`** commandline tool is built for compatibility with the AWS S3 API and is tested with MinIO and AWS S3 for expected functionality and behavior.

MinIO provides no guarantees for other S3-compatible services, as their S3 API implementation is unknown and therefore unsupported. While **`mc`** commands *may* work as documented, any such usage is at your own risk.
