# DeleteResourceMetricsConfiguration
<a name="API_DeleteResourceMetricsConfiguration"></a>

Deletes the resource metrics configuration for an AWS resource. After you delete the configuration, Amazon CloudWatch stops collecting detailed metrics for the resource. Metric data that Amazon CloudWatch already collected for the resource is not deleted.

This operation returns a `ResourceNotFoundException` if no resource metrics configuration exists for the specified resource ARN. Verify that the resource ARN is correct.

To delete a resource metrics configuration, you must have the `cloudwatch:DeleteResourceMetricsConfiguration` permission. For information about scoping this permission to specific resources, see [Condition keys for resource metrics configuration access](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonCloudWatch/latest/monitoring/iam-cw-condition-keys-resource-arn.html) in the *Amazon CloudWatch User Guide*.
