Deleting a service-linked role for Amazon IoT SiteWise

If a feature or service requiring a service-linked role is no longer in use, it's advisable to delete the associated role. This is to avoid having an inactive entity that isn't being monitored or maintained. However, you must clean up the resources for your service-linked role before you can manually delete it.

Note

If the Amazon IoT SiteWise service is using the role when you try to delete the resources, then the deletion might fail. If that happens, wait for a few minutes and try again.
