DeleteDataSourceCommand

Suggest an Edit

Deletes an Amazon Kendra data source connector. An exception is not thrown if the data source is already being deleted. While the data source is being deleted, the Status field returned by a call to the DescribeDataSource API is set to DELETING. For more information, see Deleting Data Sources .

Deleting an entire data source or re-syncing your index after deleting specific documents from a data source could take up to an hour or more, depending on the number of documents you want to delete.

Example Syntax

Use a bare-bones client and the command you need to make an API call.

import { KendraClient, DeleteDataSourceCommand } from "@aws-sdk/client-kendra"; // ES Modules import
// const { KendraClient, DeleteDataSourceCommand } = require("@aws-sdk/client-kendra"); // CommonJS import
const client = new KendraClient(config);
const input = { // DeleteDataSourceRequest
  Id: "STRING_VALUE", // required
  IndexId: "STRING_VALUE", // required
};
const command = new DeleteDataSourceCommand(input);
const response = await client.send(command);
// {};
