# DeletePermission
<a name="JavaApi-DeletePermission"></a>

The following Java sample shows how to use the [DeletePermission](https://docs.amazonaws.cn/privateca/latest/APIReference/API_DeletePermission.html) operation.

The operation deletes permissions that a private CA delegated to an Amazon service principal using the [CreatePermissions](https://docs.amazonaws.cn/privateca/latest/APIReference/API_CreatePermission.html) operation. You can find a CA's ARN by calling the [ListCertificateAuthorities](https://docs.amazonaws.cn/privateca/latest/APIReference/API_ListCertificateAuthorities.html) function. You can inspect the permissions that a CA granted by calling the [ListPermissions](https://docs.amazonaws.cn/privateca/latest/APIReference/API_ListPermissions.html) function.
