# Remove Project Members

Remove project members from a project.
If no person ID is provided, all members are removed.
If a person ID is provided, only that member is removed. If the person ID is not a member of the project, the request is a no-op.
Subprojects can't have members. Trying to remove members from a subproject will fail with a 422 response.
