Deleting function scaling settings

Management console
CLI
Terraform
API
  1. In the management console, navigate to the folder containing the function.
  2. Go to Cloud Functions.
  3. Select the function.
  4. Under Version history, hover over the tag of the function version (e.g., $latest) you want to delete scaling settings for.
  5. In the pop-up window, click Scaling settings.
  6. To delete a scaling setting, set it to zero.
  7. Click Save.

To remove scaling settings, run this command:

yc serverless function remove-scaling-policy \
  --id=<function_ID> \
  --tag=\$latest

Where:

  • --id: Function ID. To find out the ID, get the list of functions.
  • --tag: Function version tag.

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 relevant documentation on the Terraform website or its mirror.

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

To delete scaling settings:

  1. In the configuration file, describe the resources you want to create:

    • yandex_function_scaling_policy: Description of function scaling settings.
      • function_id: Function ID.
      • policy: Scaling settings:
        • policy.0.tag: Function version tag.
        • policy.0.zone_instances_limit: Number of function instances. Set it to 0.
        • policy.0.zone_requests_limit: Number of calls in progress. Set it to 0.

    Here is an example of the configuration file structure:

    resource "yandex_function_scaling_policy" "my_scaling_policy" {
        function_id = "are1samplefu********"
        policy {
            tag                  = "$latest"
            zone_instances_limit = 0
            zone_requests_limit  = 0
        }
    }
    

    For more information about yandex_function_scaling_policy properties, see this provider guide.

  2. Validate your configuration using this command:

    terraform validate
    

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

    Success! The configuration is valid.
    
  3. Run this command:

    terraform plan
    

    You will see a list of resources and their properties. No changes will be made at this step. Terraform will show any errors in the configuration.

  4. Apply the configuration changes:

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

You can check that the scaling settings are deleted using the management console or this CLI command:

yc serverless function list-scaling-policies <function_name_or_ID>

To remove scaling settings, use the removeScalingPolicy REST API method for the Function resource or the FunctionService/RemoveScalingPolicy gRPC API call.
