icon: compact-disc
------------------

In this tutorial, you will learn how to use the Smallest AI platform to delete your voice clone. By the end of this tutorial, you will be able to clone your voice using our API.

You can access the source code for the Python SDK on our [GitHub repository](https://github.com/smallest-inc/smallest-python-sdk).

## Requirements

Before you begin, ensure you have the following:

* Python (3.9 or higher) installed on your machine.
* An API key from the Smallest AI [platform](https://waves.smallest.ai?utm_source=documentation\&utm_medium=voice-cloning).

## Setup

### Install our SDK

```bash
pip install smallestai
```

Set your API key as an environment variable.

```bash
export SMALLEST_API_KEY=YOUR_API_KEY
```

## Delete your Voice

The Smallest AI SDK allows you to delete your cloned voice. This feature is available both synchronously and asynchronously, making it flexible for different use cases. Below are examples of how to use this functionality.

### Synchronously

<CodeGroup>
  ```python python 
  from smallestai.waves import WavesClient

  def main():
      client = WavesClient(api_key="SMALLEST_API_KEY")
      res = client.delete_voice(voice_id="voice_id")
      print(res)

  if __name__ == "__main__":
      main()
  ```
</CodeGroup>

### Asynchronously

<CodeGroup>
  ```python python
  import asyncio
  from smallestai.waves import AsyncWavesClient

  async def main():
      client = AsyncWavesClient(api_key="SMALLEST_API_KEY")
      res = await client.delete_voice(voice_id="voice_id")
      print(res)

  if __name__ == "__main__":
      asyncio.run(main())
  ```
</CodeGroup>

## Parameters

* `api_key`: Your API key (can be set via SMALLEST\_API\_KEY environment variable).
* `voice_id`: Unique Voice ID of the voice to be deleted.
