How to deprovision resources

First, review the resource-specific restoration options to understand the impact of deprovisioning each type of resource and make any necessary preparations, such as exporting Database data, before proceeding.

​

Apps

Deprovisioning an App also deprovisions its Endpoints. Apps can be deprovisioned using the aptible apps:deprovision CLI command or through the Dashboard:

• Select the App

• Select the Deprovision tab

• Follow the prompt

Database Backups

Automated Backups are deleted per the Environment’s backup retention policy when the Database is deprovisioned. Manual backups, created using the aptible db:backup CLI command, must be deleted using the aptible backup:purge CLI command or through the Dashboard:

• Select the Backup Management tab within the desired Environment.

• Select “Permanently remove this backup” for backups marked as Manual.

​

Databases

Databases can be deprovisioned using the aptible db:deprovision CLI command or through the Dashboard:

Log and Metric Drains

Delete Log and Metric Drains in the Dashboard:

• Select the Log Drains or Metric Drains tabs within each Environment.

• Select Delete on the top right of each drain.

​

Environments

Environments can only be deprovisioned after all of the resources in the Environment have been deprovisioned. Environments can only be deprovisioned through the Dashboard:
