Deleting policy stores
You can delete Amazon Verified Permissions policy stores using the Amazon Web Services Management Console or the Amazon CLI. Deleting a
policy store permanently deletes the schema and any policies in the policy store.
Deletion protection prevents accidental deletion of a policy store. Deletion protection is
enabled on all new policy stores created through the Amazon Web Services Management Console. By contrast, it is disabled
for all policy stores created through an API or SDK call.
You may want to delete policy stores for the following reasons:
-
You have reached the quota of available policy stores in a given Region. For more
information, see Quotas for resources.
-
You're no longer supporting a tenant in a multi-tenant application and, therefore,
no longer need that policy store.

To delete a policy store
You can delete a policy store by using the delete-policy-store
operation, replacing PSEXAMPLEabcdefg111111
$ aws verifiedpermissions delete-policy-store \
--policy-store-id PSEXAMPLEabcdefg111111
If successful, this command produces no output.
If deletion protection is enabled for this policy store, you must first
run the update-policy-store operation and disable deletion
protection.
aws verifiedpermissions update-policy-store \
--deletion-protection "DISABLED" \
--policy-store-id PSEXAMPLEabcdefg111111
