Terminate instances

How to terminate an instance with the FluidStack API

The instance’s id is required to terminate it. To find the id of an instance, see List instances.

Call the Terminate an instance endpoint:

You must provide your own API key in the header of the request.

Also, replace the text {instance_id} in the endpoint’s path with your instance’s id.

Example request with cURL:

$ curl -X DELETE https://platform.fluidstack.io/instances/i-1234567890 \
>      -H "api-key: api_key_j123MyFakeAPIKey"

If your request succeeds, the endpoint will respond with a status code of 204. No data will be returned in the response body.

For further details, see the API Reference.
