delete

Description

Deletes the specified security attribute. This operation triggers a process that removes the security attribute from all resources in your tenancy.

When you start the delete operation, the state of the security attribute changes to DELETING and security attribute removal from resources begins. This can take up to 48 hours depending on the number of resources that were tagged as well as the regions in which those resources reside.

When all attributes have been removed, the state changes to DELETED. You cannot restore a deleted attribute. Once the deleted attribute changes its state to DELETED, you can use the same security attribute name again.

After you start this operation, you cannot start either the BulkDeleteSecurityAttributes or the CascadeDeleteSecurityAttributeNamespace operation until this process completes.

To delete a security attribute, you must first retire it. Use UpdateSecurityAttribute to retire a security attribute.

Usage

oci security-attribute security-attribute delete [OPTIONS]

Required Parameters

--security-attribute-name [text]

The name of the security attribute.

--security-attribute-namespace-id [text]

The OCID of the security attribute namespace.

Optional Parameters

--force

Perform deletion without prompting for confirmation.

--from-json [text]

Provide input to this command as a JSON document from a file using the file://path-to/file syntax.

The --generate-full-command-json-input option can be used to generate a sample json file to be used with this command option. The key names are pre-populated and match the command option names (converted to camelCase format, e.g. compartment-id –> compartmentId), while the values of the keys need to be populated by the user before using the sample file as an input to this command. For any command option that accepts multiple values, the value of the key can be a JSON array.

Options can still be provided on the command line. If an option exists in both the JSON document and the command line then the command line specified value will be used.

For examples on usage of this option, please see our “using CLI with advanced JSON options” link: https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/iaas/Content/API/SDKDocs/cliusing.htm#AdvancedJSONOptions

--if-match [text]

For optimistic concurrency control. In the PUT or DELETE call for a resource, set the if-match parameter to the value of the etag from a previous GET or POST response for that resource. The resource will be updated or deleted only if the etag you provide matches the resource’s current etag value.
