[ aws . directconnect ]

delete-connection

Description

Deletes the specified connection.

Deleting a connection only stops the AWS Direct Connect port hour and data transfer charges. If you are partnering with any third parties to connect with the AWS Direct Connect location, you must cancel your service with them separately.

See also: AWS API Documentation

See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.

Synopsis

  delete-connection
--connection-id <value>
[--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]

Options

--connection-id (string)

The ID of the connection.

--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml (string) Reads arguments from the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton. If other arguments are provided on the command line, those values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally. This may not be specified along with --cli-input-yaml.

--generate-cli-skeleton (string) Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value input, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for --cli-input-json. Similarly, if provided yaml-input it will print a sample input YAML that can be used with --cli-input-yaml. If provided with the value output, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command.
