Deleting a log group
Note
The name of the default log group is default
. You can delete it. However, the system will automatically recreate it if a service or application writes logs targeting the folder ID.
- In the management console
, select the folder where you want to delete a log group. - Select Cloud Logging.
- Next to the log group, click
and select Delete. - In the window that opens, click Delete.
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.
To access a log group, use its name or unique ID. To find them out, get a list of log groups in the folder.
To delete a log group, run this command:
yc logging group delete --name=group
Result:
done (1s)
