Delete Jobs
editDelete Jobs
editThe delete job API enables you to delete an existing anomaly detection job.
Request
editDELETE _xpack/ml/anomaly_detectors/<job_id>
Description
editAll job configuration, model state and results are deleted.
Deleting a job must be done via this API only. Do not delete the
job directly from the .ml-* indices using the Elasticsearch
DELETE Document API. When X-Pack security is enabled, make sure no write
privileges are granted to anyone over the .ml-* indices.
Before you can delete a job, you must delete the datafeeds that are associated with it. See Delete Datafeeds.
It is not currently possible to delete multiple jobs using wildcards or a comma separated list.
Path Parameters
edit-
job_id(required) - (string) Identifier for the job
Authorization
editYou must have manage_ml, or manage cluster privileges to use this API.
For more information, see Cluster Privileges.
Examples
editThe following example deletes the event_rate job:
DELETE _xpack/ml/anomaly_detectors/event_rate
When the job is deleted, you receive the following results:
{ "acknowledged": true }
