delete-streaming-distribution

Description

Delete a streaming distribution. To delete an RTMP distribution using the CloudFront API, perform the following steps.

To delete an RTMP distribution using the CloudFront API :
  • Disable the RTMP distribution.
  • Submit a GET Streaming Distribution Config request to get the current configuration and the Etag header for the distribution.
  • Update the XML document that was returned in the response to your GET Streaming Distribution Config request to change the value of Enabled to false .
  • Submit a PUT Streaming Distribution Config request to update the configuration for your distribution. In the request body, include the XML document that you updated in Step 3. Then set the value of the HTTP If-Match header to the value of the ETag header that CloudFront returned when you submitted the GET Streaming Distribution Config request in Step 2.
  • Review the response to the PUT Streaming Distribution Config request to confirm that the distribution was successfully disabled.
  • Submit a GET Streaming Distribution Config request to confirm that your changes have propagated. When propagation is complete, the value of Status is Deployed .
  • Submit a DELETE Streaming Distribution request. Set the value of the HTTP If-Match header to the value of the ETag header that CloudFront returned when you submitted the GET Streaming Distribution Config request in Step 2.
  • Review the response to your DELETE Streaming Distribution request to confirm that the distribution was successfully deleted.

For information about deleting a distribution using the CloudFront console, see Deleting a Distribution in the Amazon CloudFront Developer Guide .

Synopsis

  delete-streaming-distribution
--id <value>
[--if-match <value>]
[--cli-input-json <value>]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]

Options

--id (string)

The distribution ID.

--if-match (string)

The value of the ETag header that you received when you disabled the streaming distribution. For example: E2QWRUHAPOMQZL .

--cli-input-json (string) Performs service operation based on the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton. If other arguments are provided on the command line, the CLI 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.

--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. If provided with the value output, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command.
