# cPanel API 2 Functions - Branding::delbrandingobj

Warning:
The cPanel API 2 system is deprecated. We **strongly** recommend that you use [UAPI](/cpanel/introduction) instead of cPanel API 2.

## Description

This function deletes items from the current `dynamicui.conf` file.

div
Note:

cPanel API 2's `Branding` module **only** modifies data for the x3 theme. We removed the x3 theme. For more information, read our cPanel Deprecation Plan documentation.

Warning:
We **strongly** recommend that you use [UAPI](/cpanel/introduction/) instead of cPanel API 2. However, no equivalent UAPI function exists.

cPanel Tag System (deprecated)

Warnings:
- cPanel tags are **deprecated**. We **strongly** recommend that you **only** use the [LiveAPI](/guides/guide-to-the-liveapi-system) system to call the cPanel APIs. Examples are **only** present in order to help developers move from the old cPanel tag system to our [LiveAPI](/guides/guide-to-the-liveapi-system).
- cPanel API 2 calls that use cPanel tags vary in code syntax and in their output.
- For more information, read our [Deprecated cPanel Tag Usage](/cpanel-api-2/cpanel-api-2-deprecate-cpanel-tag-usage) documentation.
