Deleting a resource

If you do not have the Yandex Cloud command line interface yet, install and initialize it.

The folder specified in the CLI profile is used by default. You can specify a different folder using the --folder-name or --folder-id parameter.

1. View a description of the CLI resource delete command:

   yc cdn resource delete --help
   

2. Get a list of all resources in the default folder:

   yc cdn resource list --format yaml
   

   Result:

   id: s0me1dkfjq********
   folder_id: s0mef01der7p********
   cname: testexample.com
   ...
   ssl_certificate:
     type: DONT_USE
     status: READY
   

3. Delete the resource:

   yc cdn resource delete <resource_ID>
   

   For more information about the yc cdn resource delete command, see the CLI reference.

4. Make sure that the delete operation was successful. To do this, view the folder's resource list again:

   yc cdn resource list
   

If you don't have Terraform, install it and configure the Yandex Cloud provider.

To delete a CDN resource created with Terraform:

1. Open the Terraform configuration file and delete the section with the resource description.

   An example of describing a CDN resource in the Terraform configuration

   resource "yandex_cdn_resource" "my_resource" {
       cname               = "cdn1.yandex-example.ru"
       active              = false
       origin_protocol     = "https"
       secondary_hostnames = ["cdn-example-1.yandex.ru", "cdn-example-2.yandex.ru"]
       origin_group_id     = yandex_cdn_origin_group.my_group.id
       ...
       options {
         edge_cache_settings = "345600"
         ignore_cookie       = true
         ...
       }
   }
   

2. In the command line, go to the folder with the Terraform configuration file.

3. Check the configuration using this command:

   terraform validate
   

   If the configuration is correct, you will get this message:

   Success! The configuration is valid.
   

4. Run this command:

   terraform plan
   

   The terminal will display a list of resources with parameters. No changes will be made at this step. If the configuration contains any errors, Terraform will point them out.

5. Apply the configuration changes:

   terraform apply
   

6. Confirm the changes: type yes into the terminal and press Enter.

   You can check whether the CDN resource has been deleted using the management console or this CLI command:

   yc cdn resource list
   

To delete a resource, use the delete REST API method for the Resource resource or the ResourceService/Delete gRPC API call.
