delete-function

Description

Deletes a Lambda function. To delete a specific function version, use the Qualifier parameter. Otherwise, all versions and aliases are deleted.

To delete Lambda event source mappings that invoke a function, use DeleteEventSourceMapping . For AWS services and resources that invoke your function directly, delete the trigger in the service where you originally configured it.

See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.

Synopsis

  delete-function
--function-name <value>
[--qualifier <value>]
[--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]

Options

--function-name (string)

The name of the Lambda function or version.

Name formats

• Function name - my-function (name-only), my-function:1 (with version).

• Function ARN - arn:aws:lambda:us-west-2:123456789012:function:my-function .

• Partial ARN - 123456789012:function:my-function .

You can append a version number or alias to any of the formats. The length constraint applies only to the full ARN. If you specify only the function name, it is limited to 64 characters in length.

--qualifier (string)

Specify a version to delete. You can’t delete a version that’s referenced by an alias.

--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.

See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.
