gcloud compute instant-snapshots delete

NAME
gcloud compute instant-snapshots delete - delete a Compute Engine instant snapshot
SYNOPSIS
gcloud compute instant-snapshots delete INSTANT_SNAPSHOT_NAME [INSTANT_SNAPSHOT_NAME …] [--region =REGION | --zone =ZONE] [GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG]
DESCRIPTION
gcloud compute instant-snapshots delete deletes a Compute Engine instant snapshot. A disk can be deleted only if it is not attached to any virtual machine instances.
EXAMPLES
To delete Compute Engine instant snapshots with the names 'instant-snapshot-1' and 'instant-snapshot-2', run:
gcloudcomputeinstant-snapshotsdeleteinstant-snapshot-1instant-snapshot-2

To list all instant snapshots that were created before a specific date, use the --filter flag with the gcloud compute instant-snapshots list command.

gcloudcomputeinstant-snapshotslist --filter="creationTimestamp<'2017-01-01'"

For more information on how to use --filter with the list command, run $ gcloud topic filters.

POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS
INSTANT_SNAPSHOT_NAME [INSTANT_SNAPSHOT_NAME …]
Names of the instant snapshots to delete.
FLAGS
At most one of these can be specified:
--region=REGION
Region of the instant snapshots to delete. If not specified, you might be prompted to select a region (interactive mode only).

To avoid prompting when this flag is omitted, you can set the compute/region property:

gcloudconfigsetcompute/regionREGION

A list of regions can be fetched by running:

gcloudcomputeregionslist 

To unset the property, run:

gcloudconfigunsetcompute/region

Alternatively, the region can be stored in the environment variable CLOUDSDK_COMPUTE_REGION.

--zone=ZONE
Zone of the instant snapshots to delete. If not specified and the compute/zone property isn't set, you might be prompted to select a zone (interactive mode only).

To avoid prompting when this flag is omitted, you can set the compute/zone property:

gcloudconfigsetcompute/zoneZONE

A list of zones can be fetched by running:

gcloudcomputezoneslist 

To unset the property, run:

gcloudconfigunsetcompute/zone

Alternatively, the zone can be stored in the environment variable CLOUDSDK_COMPUTE_ZONE.
