Hi,

I have the below connections and I would like to remove one of them, but it seems that the remoteit agent response with no service to remove?

```auto
pi@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo remoteit status
 ✓ Fetching status

 owner: fotis.karelas@gmail.com, deviceRegistered: true, services: 0, connections: 3

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo remoteit remove --id <service ID2>
 × No services to remove (CODE: 2)

```

Any idea how to remove or why does it say “No services to remove” ?

p.s. Actually on all 3 connections it is not possible to remove them with the same reason.

Hello,  
The command you are running is actually to remove a registered service on the device and not the connection. The current state of this device is that you have it registered as a device but there are no services registered to accept connections. This means that you cannot make a connection from another device or app to this device.

To remove a connection, use the command:

```auto
sudo remoteit connection remove --id <connection id>

```

You can always get help by running the command:

```auto
sudo remoteit help

```

Or if you are at a specific level like connections, you can run:

```auto
sudo remoteit connection --help

```
