## Remarks

Dispatching this command will result in removal of the item from a section. If the removed item was last in the section, the section will be left on the layout and will contain no items.

You may optionally specify the stashIdentifier in order to stash the removed item for later resurrection.

This command operates only on the root layout. For nested layouts, use [removeNestedLayoutSectionItem()](https://www.gooddata.ai/docs/gooddata-ui/latest/api-reference/sdk-ui-dashboard/sdk-ui-dashboard.removenestedlayoutsectionitem/index.md).
