## can_delete ##
[[Source]<br>](https://github.com/ripple/rippled/blob/develop/src/ripple/rpc/handlers/CanDelete.cpp "Source")
With `online_delete` and `advisory_delete` configuration options enabled,
the `can_delete` method informs the rippled server of the latest ledger
which may be deleted.
#### Request Format ####
An example of the request format:
<div class='multicode'>
*WebSocket*
```
{
"id": 2,
"command": "can_delete",
"can_delete": 11320417
}
```
*JSON-RPC*
```
{
"method": "can_delete",
"params": [
{
"can_delete": 11320417
}
]
}
```
*Commandline*
```
#Syntax can_delete [<ledger_index>|<ledger_hash>|now|always|never]
rippled -- can_delete 11320417
```
</div>
The request includes the following optional parameter:
| Field | Type | Description |
|-------|------|-------------|
| can_delete | String or Integer | The maximum ledger to allow to be deleted. For `ledger_index` or `ledger_hash`, see [Specifying a Ledger](#specifying-a-ledger-instance). `never` sets the value to 0, and effectively disables online deletion until another `can_delete` is appropriately called. `always` sets the value to the maximum possible ledger (4294967295), and online deletion will occur as of each configured `online_delete` interval. `now` triggers online deletion at the next validated ledger that meets or exceeds the configured `online_delete` interval, but no further. |
If no parameter is specified, no change is made.
The response follows the [standard format](#response-formatting), with
a successful result containing the following fields:
| Field | Type | Description |
|-------|------|-------------|
| can_delete | Integer | The maximum ledger index that may be removed by the online deletion routine. |
Use this command with no parameter to query the existing `can_delete` setting.
#### Possible Errors ####
* Any of the [universal error types](#universal-errors).
* `notEnabled` - Not enabled in configuration.
* `notReady` - Not ready to handle this request.
* `lgrNotFound` - Ledger not found.
* `invalidParams` - Invalid parameters.
