Teardown Instances

axiom-rm

Remove one or more axiom instances ❌

Once you're done with your instance, delete it using the command, axiom-rm

axiom-rm jerry
axiom-rm jerry -f # avoid confirmation prompts
axiom-rm jerry01 jerry02 -f # explicitly list the names of the instances to delete
axiom-rm 'jerry\*' -f # delete all instances starting with jerry
axiom-rm '\*erry\*' -f # delete based on substring matches

The -f/--force flag will not prompt on deletion, I generally use this, but if you want to be ultra sure omit the -f flag.

The -m/--multi flag deletes many instances at once. Its a faster way to delete instances and uses less API calls (with most providers)

  axiom-rm '\*' --force --multi # Delete all instances on the account, avoid confirmation prompts, delete many instances with one API call
