# Hiding the logo in the API docs

## Question

> To remove the `x-logo` image from the `openapi.yaml`, do I need to hack the HTML or can I just remove the reference in the OpenAPI document?


## Context

Redocly supports a [specification extension `x-logo`](/docs-legacy/api-reference-docs/specification-extensions/x-logo) that is added to the `info` object.

```yaml
openapi: '3.0.3'
info:
  version: '1.0.0'
  title: 'Redocly Example API'
  x-logo:
    url: 'https://redocly.github.io/redoc/example-logo.png'
    backgroundColor: '#FFFFFF'
    altText: 'Example logo'
paths: {}
```

When the `x-logo` is present, Redocly will render the logo in the top left corner of the OpenAPI docs.

## Answer

There are at least three ways to accomplish this task.

The two easiest ways are:

- Remove `x-logo` from the OpenAPI file.
- Use the `hideLogo` feature toggle.


### Remove `x-logo` from the OpenAPI description

Given this initial API, remove the `x-logo` object.

```yaml
openapi: '3.0.3'
info:
  version: '1.0.0'
  title: 'Redocly Example API'
  x-logo:
    url: 'https://redocly.github.io/redoc/example-logo.png'
    backgroundColor: '#FFFFFF'
    altText: 'Example logo'
paths: {}
```

After removing the object and rebuilding your docs, the logo will not be visible in the corner.

```yaml
openapi: '3.0.3'
info:
  version: '1.0.0'
  title: 'Redocly Example API'
paths: {}
```

### Use the `hideLogo` feature toggle

Sometimes you can't edit the OpenAPI file.
Don't worry.
Redocly has a feature toggle for that.

The feature toggle can be set in the Redocly configuration file.

This is an excerpt from the configuration file that demonstrates hiding the logo.

```yaml
openapi.features:
  hideLogo: true
```

Now that you've seen how it works, try it with your APIs.

Let me know how it goes.
