1. To make sure that an API or API version is eligible to remove, follow these steps.
    1. Remove its actions that are part of Salesforce automations.
    2. Deactivate its actions in API Catalog.
2. Before you remove a MuleSoft API from API Catalog, remove the tags in Anypoint Exchange that make the APIs eligible to sync. The tags are typically sf-api-catalog and sf-api-topic. If you don’t remove the tags, API Catalog adds the APIs or versions again in the next sync.

    Note If you delete synced APIs from Anypoint Platform, they remain in API Catalog. Remove them from API Catalog separately.
3. From Setup, in the Quick Find box, enter API Catalog, and then select **API Catalog**.
4. To remove an entire API, in the API list, for the API to remove, select the **Remove API** action.
    
    Removing an External Services API removes the API from API Catalog and from the External Services page.
5. To remove a MuleSoft API version, complete these steps.
    1. In the API list, select the API to remove.
    2. Select the version of the API.
    3. In the API version details page, click **Remove API**.
