There is an HTTP method called "DELETE" often used in RESTful web services to delete a resource identified by a specific URL.

In RESTful web services, the HTTP DELETE method is used to request the server to delete the resource specified by the URL. The server responds with a status code indicating the success or failure of the deletion operation.

For example, if you want to delete a user with the ID "123" from a hypothetical RESTful API, you could send an HTTP DELETE request to the URL:

https://example.com/users/123

The server would then attempt to delete the user with the ID "123" and respond with a status code indicating the success or failure of the operation.
