1. If your organization has multiple notebooks, identify the Notebook Name from the Notebook List section.
2. Run the following command in your terminal, and replace \<notebook name> with the name of the notebook you want to delete:

```
cldkctl notebook delete <notebook name>
```

3. If your notebook is running in a different namespace, include the --namespace flag followed by the namespace name.
4. Wait for a few moments while the system processes the deletion request and releases all related resources.
5. Once the process completes successfully, the terminal displays the message “✔ Notebook deleted”.
6. To confirm the notebook has been removed, refer to the Notebook List section.
