Delete datafeeds API

Deletes an existing datafeed.

DELETE _xpack/ml/datafeeds/<feed_id>

Unless the force parameter is used, the datafeed must be stopped before it can be deleted.

force: (boolean) Use to forcefully delete a started datafeed; this method is quicker than stopping and deleting the datafeed.

You must have manage_ml, or manage cluster privileges to use this API. For more information, see Security privileges.

The following example deletes the datafeed-total-requests datafeed:

DELETE _xpack/ml/datafeeds/datafeed-total-requests

When the datafeed is deleted, you receive the following results:

{
  "acknowledged": true
}
