#### [ CLI ]

**Amazon CLI**  
**To remove a role from an instance profile**  
The following `remove-role-from-instance-profile` command removes the role named `Test-Role` from the instance profile named `ExampleInstanceProfile`.  

```
aws iam remove-role-from-instance-profile \
    --instance-profile-name ExampleInstanceProfile \
    --role-name Test-Role
```
For more information, see [Using instance profiles](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/id_roles_use_switch-role-ec2_instance-profiles.html) in the *Amazon IAM User Guide*.  
+  For API details, see [RemoveRoleFromInstanceProfile](https://awscli.amazonaws.com/v2/documentation/api/latest/reference/iam/remove-role-from-instance-profile.html) in *Amazon CLI Command Reference*.

#### [ PowerShell ]

**Tools for PowerShell V4**  
**Example 1: This example deletes the role named `MyNewRole` from the EC2 instance profile named `MyNewRole`. An instance profile that is created in the IAM console always has the same name as the role, as in this example. If you create them in the API or CLI, then they can have different names.**  

```
Remove-IAMRoleFromInstanceProfile -InstanceProfileName MyNewRole -RoleName MyNewRole -Force
```
+  For API details, see [RemoveRoleFromInstanceProfile](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/powershell/v4/reference) in *Amazon Tools for PowerShell Cmdlet Reference (V4)*. 

**Tools for PowerShell V5**  
**Example 1: This example deletes the role named `MyNewRole` from the EC2 instance profile named `MyNewRole`. An instance profile that is created in the IAM console always has the same name as the role, as in this example. If you create them in the API or CLI, then they can have different names.**  

```
Remove-IAMRoleFromInstanceProfile -InstanceProfileName MyNewRole -RoleName MyNewRole -Force
```
