DeleteConnectionCommand

Deletes the specified connection.

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

Example Syntax

Use a bare-bones client and the command you need to make an API call.

import { DirectConnectClient, DeleteConnectionCommand } from "@aws-sdk/client-direct-connect"; // ES Modules import
// const { DirectConnectClient, DeleteConnectionCommand } = require("@aws-sdk/client-direct-connect"); // CommonJS import
const client = new DirectConnectClient(config);
const input = { // DeleteConnectionRequest
  connectionId: "STRING_VALUE", // required
};
const command = new DeleteConnectionCommand(input);
const response = await client.send(command);
// { // Connection
//   ownerAccount: "STRING_VALUE",
//   connectionId: "STRING_VALUE",
//   connectionName: "STRING_VALUE",
//   connectionState: "ordering" || "requested" || "pending" || "available" || "down" || "deleting" || "deleted" || "rejected" || "unknown",
//   region: "STRING_VALUE",
//   location: "STRING_VALUE",
//   bandwidth: "STRING_VALUE",
//   vlan: Number("int"),
//   partnerName: "STRING_VALUE",
//   loaIssueTime: new Date("TIMESTAMP"),
//   lagId: "STRING_VALUE",
