### What Gets Deleted

When you delete a document:

* **Document record** is removed from the database
* **Vector embeddings** are deleted from the vector database
* **Processed content** is removed from external document stores
* **Parent knowledgebase status** is updated automatically

<Warning>
  This action is irreversible. The document and all its processed content will be permanently deleted.
</Warning>

<Note>
  If this was the last document in the knowledgebase, the knowledgebase status will change to `empty`.
</Note>
