Delete a notification rule target - Developer Tools console

Delete a notification rule target

You can delete a target if it is no longer needed. A resource can only have 10 notification rule targets configured for it, so deleting unneeded targets can help create room for other targets you might want to add to that notification rule.

Note

Deleting a notification rule target removes the target from all notification rules configured to use it as a target, but it does not delete the target itself.

To delete a notification rule target (console)

  1. Open the AWS Developer Tools console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/codesuite/settings/notifications.

  2. In the navigation bar, expand Settings, and then choose Notification rules.

  3. In Notification rule targets, review the list of targets configured for your resources in your AWS account in the AWS Region where you are currently signed in. Use the selector to change the AWS Region.

  4. Choose the notification rule target, and then choose Delete.

  5. Type delete, and then choose Delete.

To delete a notification rule target (AWS CLI)

  1. At a terminal or command prompt, run the delete-target command, specifying the ARN of the target. For example, the following command deletes a target that uses an Amazon SNS topic.

    aws codestar-notifications delete-target --target-address arn:aws:sns:us-east-1:123456789012:MyNotificationTopic

  2. If successful, the command returns nothing. If unsuccessful, the command returns an error. The most common error is that the topic is the target for one or more notification rules. 

    An error occurred (ValidationException) when calling the DeleteTarget operation: Unsubscribe target before deleting.

    You can use the --force-unsubscribe-all parameter to remove the target from all notification rules configured to use it as a target, and then delete the target.

    aws codestar-notifications delete-target --target-address arn:aws:sns:us-east-1:123456789012:MyNotificationTopic --force-unsubscribe-all
