The deleteSavedQueryV2() GraphQL mutation is used to delete a saved query. It will return true if successful, false if the saved query does not exist, and null with errors for other failures.

This replaces deleteSavedQuery(), which was deprecated.

For more information on saved queries, see the User Functions (Saved Searches) reference page where saved queries are discussed. Also, look at the Search Data documentation page as it relates to recent queries and saving queries.
