Disabling a resource

Written by
Yandex Cloud
Updated at December 3, 2025

You can stop a resource by disabling end-user access to the content. To do this:

Management console
CLI
Terraform
API
  1. In the management console, select the folder where your resource is located.

  2. Go to Cloud CDN.

  3. Click the resource name.

  4. In the top-right corner, click Edit.

  5. Under Additional settings, disable Enable access to content.

  6. Click Save.

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 update a resource:

    yc cdn resource update --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
    created_at: "2022-01-19T09:23:57.921365Z"
    updated_at: "2022-01-19T10:55:30.305141Z"
    active: true
    options:
      edge_cache_settings:
        enabled: true
        default value: "345600"
      cache_http_headers:
        enabled: true
        value:
        - content-type
        - content-length
        - connection
        - server
        - date
        - test
      stale:
        enabled: true
        value:
        - error
        - updating
      allowed_http_methods:
        value:
        - GET
        - POST
        - HEAD
        - OPTIONS
    origin_group_id: "89783"
    origin_group_name: My origins group
    origin_protocol: HTTP
    ssl_certificate:
      type: DONT_USE
      status: READY
    
  3. Disable end-user access to content by setting the --active flag to false:

    yc cdn resource update <resource_ID> --active false
    

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

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

  1. Open the Terraform configuration file and add or edit the yandex_cdn_resource section by setting active = false.

    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
          ...
        }
    }
    

    For more information about the yandex_cdn_resource properties in Terraform, see the provider documentation.

  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 show them.

  5. Apply the changes:

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

    You can check the CDN resource update in the management console or using this CLI command:

    yc cdn resource list
    

Use the update REST API method for the Resource resource or the ResourceService/Update gRPC API call.
