Stability Level Long-Term

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.

Similar to this mutation, there is the createSavedQueryFromTemplate() creating a saved query using a YAML template, and createSavedQueryFromPackageTemplate() for creating one from a template in a package. There are also the mutations, createSavedQuery(), copySavedQuery(), and updateSavedQuery() for creating, copying, and updating saved queries. There is also setDefaultSavedQuery() for marking a saved query as the default, and the query savedQuery() to get details on a specific saved query.
