Deleting an Apache Airflow™ cluster

You can delete an Apache Airflow™ cluster if you no longer need it.

Deleting a clusterDeleting a cluster

Before deleting a cluster, disable its deletion protection if it is enabled.

Management console
CLI
Terraform
REST API
gRPC API
  1. In the management console, select the folder you want to delete a cluster from.
  2. Select Managed Service for Apache Airflow™.
  3. Click for the cluster you need and select Delete.
  4. In the window that opens, confirm the deletion and click Delete.

If you do not have the Yandex Cloud CLI yet, install and initialize it.

The folder specified when creating the CLI profile is used by default. To change the default folder, use the yc config set folder-id <folder_ID> command. You can specify a different folder using the --folder-name or --folder-id parameter.

To delete a cluster, run the command:

yc managed-airflow cluster delete <cluster_name_or_ID>

You can request the cluster ID and name with a list of clusters in the folder.

With Terraform, you can quickly create a cloud infrastructure in Yandex Cloud and manage it using configuration files. These files store the infrastructure description written in HashiCorp Configuration Language (HCL). If you change the configuration files, Terraform automatically detects which part of your configuration is already deployed, and what should be added or removed.

Terraform is distributed under the Business Source License. The Yandex Cloud provider for Terraform is distributed under the MPL-2.0 license.

For more information about the provider resources, see the documentation on the Terraform website or mirror website.

If you do not have Terraform yet, install it and configure its Yandex Cloud provider.

To delete a cluster created using Terraform:

  1. In the command line, go to the folder that houses the current Terraform configuration file with an infrastructure plan.

  2. Delete the resources using this command:

    terraform destroy
    

    Alert

    Terraform will delete all the resources you created using it, such as clusters, networks, subnets, and VMs.

  3. Type yes and press Enter.

  1. Get an IAM token for API authentication and put it into the environment variable:

    export IAM_TOKEN="<IAM_token>"
    
  2. Use the Cluster.delete method and make a request, e.g., via cURL:

    curl \
        --request DELETE \
        --header "Authorization: Bearer $IAM_TOKEN" \
        --url 'https://airflow.api.cloud.yandex.net/managed-airflow/v1/clusters/<cluster_ID>'
    

    You can get the cluster ID with a list of clusters in the folder.

  3. View the server response to make sure the request was successful.

  1. Get an IAM token for API authentication and put it into the environment variable:

    export IAM_TOKEN="<IAM_token>"
    
  2. Clone the cloudapi repository:

    cd ~/ && git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/yandex-cloud/cloudapi
    

    Below, we assume the repository contents are stored in the ~/cloudapi/ directory.

  3. Use the ClusterService/Delete call and make a request, e.g., via gRPCurl:

    grpcurl \
        -format json \
        -import-path ~/cloudapi/ \
        -import-path ~/cloudapi/third_party/googleapis/ \
        -proto ~/cloudapi/yandex/cloud/airflow/v1/cluster_service.proto \
        -rpc-header "Authorization: Bearer $IAM_TOKEN" \
        -d '{
                "cluster_id": "<cluster_ID>"
            }' \
        airflow.api.cloud.yandex.net:443 \
        yandex.cloud.airflow.v1.ClusterService.Delete
    

    You can get the cluster ID with a list of clusters in the folder.

  4. View the server response to make sure the request was successful.
