How to Destroy Agents Using the Control Panel on DigitalOcean Gradient™ AI Platform

Destroy an Agent Using Automation

Destroying an agent using the DigitalOcean API requires the unique identifier of the agent you want to destroy. You can get a list of agents with their unique identifiers with the /v2/gen-ai/agents endpoint.

curl -X DELETE \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json"  \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $DIGITALOCEAN_TOKEN" \
  "https://api.digitalocean.com/v2/gen-ai/agent/5581a586-a745-11ef-bf8f-4e013e2ddde4"

Destroy an Agent Using the Control Panel

To destroy an agent from the DigitalOcean Control Panel, click Agent Platform in the left menu, then in the Agent Workspaces tab, select the workspace that contains the agent you want to destroy.

From the workspace’s Agents tab, find the agent you want to destroy, and then in the agent’s More menu, select Destroy. In the Destroy Agent window, type the agent’s name to confirm that you want to destroy the agent and then click Destroy.

Destroying an agent removes all endpoints for the agent, but does not delete attached knowledge bases, custom models, or agents that the deleted agent routed to. If you are routing to the deleted agent from other agents, you need to update the existing agent’s routing instructions.
