## Delete a connection (CLI)


You can use the AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI) to delete a connection.

To do this, use the **delete-connection** command. 

**Important**  
After you run the command, the connection is deleted. No confirmation dialog box is displayed. You can create a new connection, but the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) is never reused.

**To delete a connection**
+ Open a terminal (Linux, macOS, or Unix) or command prompt (Windows). Use the AWS CLI to run the **delete-connection** command, specifying the ARN of the connection that you want to delete.

  ```
  aws codeconnections delete-connection --connection-arn arn:aws:codeconnections:us-west-2:account_id:connection/aEXAMPLE-8aad-4d5d-8878-dfcab0bc441f
  ```

  This command returns nothing.
