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 an API gateway created using Terraform:

1. Open the Terraform configuration file and delete the fragment with the API gateway description.

   Example API gateway description in the Terraform configuration:

   ...
   resource "yandex_api_gateway" "test-api-gateway" {
     name        = "some_name"
     description = "any description"
     labels      = {
       label       = "label"
       empty-label = ""
     }
     spec = <<-EOT
       openapi: "3.0.0"
       info:
         version: 1.0.0
         title: Test API
       paths:
         /hello:
           get:
             summary: Say hello
             operationId: hello
             parameters:
               - name: user
                 in: query
                 description: User name to appear in greetings.
                 required: false
                 schema:
                   type: string
                   default: 'world'
             responses:
               '200':
                 description: Greeting.
                 content:
                   'text/plain':
                     schema:
                       type: "string"
             x-yc-apigateway-integration:
               type: dummy
               http_code: 200
               http_headers:
                 'Content-Type': "text/plain"
               content:
                 'text/plain': "Hello again, {user}!\n"
     EOT
   }
   ...
   

2. In the command line, go to the directory 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 the update using the management console or this CLI command:

   yc serverless api-gateway list
   

To delete an API gateway, use the delete REST API method for the ApiGateway resource or the ApiGatewayService/Delete gRPC API call.

You can delete an API gateway using the Yandex Cloud Toolkit plugin for the IDE family on the JetBrains IntelliJ platform.
