--layer-id <value>
[--cli-input-json <value>]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]
--layer-id (string)
The layer ID.
--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.

To delete a layer
The following example deletes a specified layer, which is identified by its layer ID. You can obtain a layer ID by going to the layer's details page on the AWS OpsWorks console or by running the describe-layers command.
Note: Before deleting a layer, you must use delete-instance to delete all of the layer's instances.
aws opsworks delete-layer --region us-east-1 --layer-id a919454e-b816-4598-b29a-5796afb498ed
