# removeRight(forIdentifier:completion:)

Removes a right from the right store given its unique identifier.

```
func removeRight(forIdentifier identifier: String, completion handler: @escaping @Sendable ((any Error)?) -> Void)
```

## Parameters

`identifier`

The identifier for the right to remove.

`handler`

A completion handler to call when the removal operation completes.

- `error`: An error object that indicates why the removal operation failed, or `nil` if it succeeded.

## Discussion

> Important:
> You can call this method from synchronous code using a completion handler, as shown on this page, or you can call it as an asynchronous method that has the following declaration:
> 
> ```swift
> func removeRight(forIdentifier identifier: String) async throws
> ```
> 
> For information about concurrency and asynchronous code in Swift, see <doc://com.apple.documentation/documentation/Swift/calling-objective-c-apis-asynchronously>.

Removing a right also removes any resources stored along with the right, such as secrets.
