To execute a DELETE request to an API, via JavaScript, first identify the data to be deleted.

In our example, we do this through a specific URL that gives us the exact post id that we want to delete.

Once complete, use the fetch function to ping the API for that specific data and delete it by setting the value to our method property (in the video) to "DELETE".

This will remove the data from the existing data structure.
