Deleting a resource

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

By default, the CLI uses the folder specified when creating the profile. To change the default folder, use the yc config set folder-id <folder_ID> command. You can also set a different folder for any specific command using the --folder-name or --folder-id parameter.

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

   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 do not have Terraform yet, 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 resource description fragment.

   An example of a CDN resource description 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 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
   

   You will see a detailed list of resources. No changes will be made at this step. If the configuration contains any errors, Terraform will point them out.

5. Apply the changes:

   terraform apply
   

6. Type yes and press Enter to confirm the changes.

   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.
