# Segments - How to delete leads from a segment?

You can remove leads from the segment in three ways:

1 - From within the lead

2 - Via automation flow (bulk removal)

3 - When the lead no longer meets the segment filter

**See the step-by-step below for both cases:**

**1 - In this first case from within the lead, access the lead that will be removed from the segment, click Edit**

Then access System Data, and delete the segment. Click Save and Close.<br>

**2 - In this second case, we will remove the lead from the segment through the Automation Flow.**&#x20;

* NOTE: Keep the flow published only if you want to perform this action in bulk. After removing the leads from the segment, deactivate the flow.

Go to Automation Flow

Click +New, add a name, and specify the segment.

Open the Builder, and add the action “Change the lead's segments”, and in Remove from Segments, specify the segment. Click Apply, then Save and Close.

**3 - The third way is through the segment filter.**

In this example, we put leads that do not have an email filled in into a segment.

Enable the option: Remove leads that no longer meet the filter (YES)

So when these leads have the email field populated, they will be removed from the segment automatically.
