In the management console, select the folder to delete the broker from.

To the right of the name of the broker you want to delete, click the icon and select Delete from the drop-down list.
In the window that opens, click Delete.

If you do not have the Yandex Cloud command line interface yet, install and initialize it.

The folder specified in the CLI profile is used by default. You can specify a different folder using the --folder-name or --folder-id parameter.

Make sure the broker was deleted:

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 don't have Terraform, install it and configure the Yandex Cloud provider.

To delete a broker created using Terraform:

Open the Terraform configuration file and delete the fragment with the broker description.

Example broker description in the Terraform configuration:
```
resource "yandex_iot_core_broker" "my_broker" {
  name        = "test-broker"
  description = "test broker for terraform provider documentation"
  }
...
}
```
For more information about the yandex_iot_core_broker resource parameters in Terraform, see the relevant provider documentation.
In the command line, change to the folder where you edited the configuration file.
Make sure the configuration file is correct using this command:
```
terraform validate
```
If the configuration is correct, you will get this message:
```
Success! The configuration is valid.
```
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.
Apply the configuration changes:
```
terraform apply
```
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 iot broker list
```

To delete a broker, use the delete REST API method for the Broker resource or the BrokerService/Delete gRPC API call.
