How to Destroy Apps in App Platform

To destroy an app via the command-line, follow these steps:

1. Install doctl, the DigitalOcean command-line tool.

2. Create a personal access token, and save it for use with doctl.

3. Use the token to grant doctl access to your DigitalOcean account.

                 doctl auth init
               

4. Finally, destroy an app with doctl apps delete. The basic usage looks like this, but you'll want to read the usage docs for more details:

                 doctl apps delete <app id> [flags]
               

   The following example deletes an app with the ID f81d4fae-7dec-11d0-a765-00a0c91e6bf6

                  doctl apps delete f81d4fae-7dec-11d0-a765-00a0c91e6bf6
               

To destroy an app using the DigitalOcean API, follow these steps:

1. Create a personal access token, and save it for use with the API.

2. Send a DELETE request to https://api.digitalocean.com/v2/apps/{id}

   To destroy an app with cURL, call:

   
                   curl -X DELETE \
     -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
     -H "Authorization: Bearer $DIGITALOCEAN_TOKEN" \
     "https://api.digitalocean.com/v2/apps/{id}"

   Python

   
                   import os
   from pydo import Client
   
   client = Client(token=os.environ.get("DIGITALOCEAN_TOKEN"))
   
   delete_resp = client.apps.delete(id="b7d64052")
