Deleting a GitLab instance

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 delete a GitLab instance, run this command:

yc managed-gitlab instance delete <instance_name_or_ID>

You can request the instance ID or name with the list of instances in the folder.

Result:

done (3m14s)

For more information about this command, see the CLI reference.

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 a GitLab instance created using Terraform:

1. Open the Terraform configuration file and delete the fragment with the yandex_gitlab_instance resource description:

   Example of a GitLab instance description in the Terraform configuration:

   resource "yandex_gitlab_instance" "my_gitlab_instance" {
     name                      = "gl-instance"
     resource_preset_id        = "s2.micro"
     disk_size                 = 100
     admin_login               = "gitlab-user"
     admin_email               = "gitlab-user@example.com"
     domain                    = "gitlab-terraform.gitlab.yandexcloud.net"
     subnet_id                 = "e9bsdv4iunrv********"
     approval_rules_id         = "BASIC"
     backup_retain_period_days = 7
     deletion_protection       = true
   }
   

2. Apply the changes:

   1. In the terminal, go to the directory where you edited the configuration file.

   2. 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.
      

   3. 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.

   4. Apply the changes:

      terraform apply
      

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

You can check the updates in the management console or using this CLI command:

yc managed-gitlab instance list

Use the Delete REST API method for the Instance resource or the InstanceService/Delete gRPC API call.
