I don't think you can delete the original User Record Type in CloudKit BUT if you made your own you can! Make your own record Type then set a ID to it(you can use your ID that's linked to the original User record by getting it using : Lets call our own user record UserInfo ;) public let container = CKContainer.init(identifier: "cloudkitIDDBName")                 guard let recordID = recordID, error == nil else {   return}                 DispatchQueue.main.async {                     self.cloudkitUserRecordID = recordID                 }             } Once you get the recordID save that somewhere in a property or something then when you create a User:) Then save a new UserInfo (our own user record type) with the user's info you want to save something like below: firstTimeUserRecord["userID"] = recordID firstTimeUserRecord["username"] = username container.publicCloudDatabase.save(firstTimeUserRecord) { newUserRecord, error in //etc } then when you want to delete you can do like below container.publicCloudDatabase.delete(withRecordID: self.recordID) { record, error in //handle your errors :/etc }

no we still can't delete containers , I have sooo many from tutorials when I was learning about Cloudkit Please @Apple update CloudKit for WWDC 😭 1.Update the CloudKit Dashboard UI!! 2.Include more Publishers usage with Cloudkit 3.Ability to Delete old Containers! 4. Real Time updates! 5. Destroy Firebase 😈
