If you are using Amazon Lex V2, refer to the Amazon Lex V2 guide instead.
If you are using Amazon Lex V1, we recommend upgrading your bots to Amazon Lex V2. We are no longer adding new features to V1 and strongly recommend using V2 for all new bots.
DeleteBot
Deletes all versions of the bot, including the $LATEST
version. To delete a specific version of the bot, use the DeleteBotVersion operation. The DeleteBot
operation doesn't immediately remove the bot schema. Instead, it is marked
for deletion and removed later.
Amazon Lex stores utterances indefinitely for improving the ability of your bot to respond to user inputs. These utterances are not removed when the bot is deleted. To remove the utterances, use the DeleteUtterances operation.
If a bot has an alias, you can't delete it. Instead, the
DeleteBot
operation returns a
ResourceInUseException
exception that includes a reference
to the alias that refers to the bot. To remove the reference to the bot,
delete the alias. If you get the same exception again, delete the
referring alias until the DeleteBot
operation is
successful.
This operation requires permissions for the
lex:DeleteBot
action.
