#### [ C\$1\$1 ]

**SDK for C\$1\$1**  
 There's more on GitHub. Find the complete example and learn how to set up and run in the [AWS Code Examples Repository](https://github.com/awsdocs/aws-doc-sdk-examples/tree/main/cpp/example_code/iam#code-examples). 

```
bool AwsDoc::IAM::deleteServerCertificate(const Aws::String &certificateName,
                                          const Aws::Client::ClientConfiguration &clientConfig) {
    Aws::IAM::IAMClient iam(clientConfig);
    Aws::IAM::Model::DeleteServerCertificateRequest request;
    request.SetServerCertificateName(certificateName);

    const auto outcome = iam.DeleteServerCertificate(request);
    bool result = true;
    if (!outcome.IsSuccess()) {
        if (outcome.GetError().GetErrorType() != Aws::IAM::IAMErrors::NO_SUCH_ENTITY) {
            std::cerr << "Error deleting server certificate " << certificateName <<

#### [ CLI ]

**AWS CLI**  
**To delete a server certificate from your AWS account**  
The following `delete-server-certificate` command removes the specified server certificate from your AWS account.  

```
aws iam delete-server-certificate \
    --server-certificate-name myUpdatedServerCertificate
```
This command produces no output.  
To list the server certificates available in your AWS account, use the `list-server-certificates` command.  
For more information, see [Managing server certificates in IAM](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/id_credentials_server-certs.html) in the *AWS IAM User Guide*.  
+  For API details, see [DeleteServerCertificate](https://awscli.amazonaws.com/v2/documentation/api/latest/reference/iam/delete-server-certificate.html) in *AWS CLI Command Reference*.
