Step 5: Clean up your resources
After you've completed the tutorial, it's good practice to clean up any resources that you no longer want to use. This way, your account doesn't incur any further charges.
Clean up in Amazon S3
Because you used an S3 bucket as both a source and a destination throughout this tutorial, Amazon S3 hosted multiple files. Unless you delete these files, their storage continues to incur charges on your AWS account. Before you delete an S3 bucket, ensure you have saved any important files to another location.
To clean up your S3 bucket
-
Open the Amazon S3 console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/s3/
. -
In the Buckets section, select your S3 bucket and choose Empty. Follow the prompts to delete the contents of the bucket.
-
In the Buckets section, select your S3 bucket and choose Delete. Follow the prompts to delete the S3 bucket.
Warning
Because S3 bucket names are globally unique, when you delete your S3 bucket, someone else can use its name. If you want to reserve an S3 bucket name, don't delete the bucket.
Now you have deleted all of the Amazon S3 resources that you created for the tutorial.
For more information on how to empty and delete S3 buckets, see the following resources:
Emptying a bucket in the Amazon S3 User Guide.
Deleting a bucket in the Amazon S3 User Guide.
Clean up in Amazon AppFlow
Amazon AppFlow stores both your connection and flows. To clean up all resources that you created in this tutorial, delete the two flows and your connection to the SaaS application.
To clean up your flows
-
Open the Amazon AppFlow console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/appflow/
. -
In the Flows section, select a flow and choose Delete. Follow the prompts to delete your flow.
-
Perform the above step for any flows that remain.
To clean up your connection
-
Open the Amazon AppFlow console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/appflow/
. -
In the Connections section, under Connectors, open the Choose a connector box. Select the connector that you used in the tutorial.
-
Select the connection and choose Delete.
-
If you used more than one connector, repeat steps 2 and 3 for all connectors.
Now you have deleted all of the resources that you created within Amazon AppFlow for the tutorial.
