### Parameters
Type | Parameter | Description 
------- | ------- | ------
String | `holidayName` | The name of the holiday to delete. Case-sensitive.

### Returns
**UIResponse** - A list of [UIResponse](https://sdk.inductiveautomation.com/javadoc/ignition81/latest/com/inductiveautomation/ignition/common/messages/UIResponse.html) objects with lists of warnings, errors, and info about the success or failure of the deletion. The contents of the lists are accessible from the getter methods.

* `getErrors()` - Returns a list of error messages that were encountered during the deletion.
* `getInfos()` - Returns a list of "info" messages that were encountered during the deletion.

These messages represent normal logging events that occurred during the deletion, and can be useful when trying to visualize the events that lead up to a failure.
