Remove unwanted deployment templates and instance configurationsedit

If you configure the deployment templates in ECE and find that you created instance configurations or deployment templates that you no longer need, you can use these steps to delete them through the RESTful API. Alternatively, you can also use the UI to delete these artifacts.

Before you beginedit

Make sure that your deployment template is no longer in use by any deployment. You cannot delete system-owned instance configurations or deployment templates.
