Waypoint
Destroy application resources
Waypoint applications and their installed add-ons use infrastructure created by Terraform in an HCP Terraform workspace. Platform engineers and application developers can destroy these resources directly within HCP Waypoint. Uninstalling an add-on from an application and destroying an application in HCP Waypoint also destroys the associated infrastructure in HCP Terraform.
In this tutorial, you will learn how to uninstall a Waypoint add-on and destroy an application.
Uninstall the add-on
Log in to HCP and navigate to the Installed add-ons page for your Waypoint application. Click on the Uninstall button from the ellipses menu and type UNINSTALL when prompted. Click Uninstall.
HCP Waypoint redirects you to the Installed add-ons page and displays a message that the uninstallation was successful.
Destroy the application
Navigate to the Applications page and click on the application you want to destroy.
Click on Manage and then Delete Application. When prompted, type DELETE and click Delete.
HCP Waypoint redirects you to the Applications page and displays a message that the destruction was successful.
Delete the Route 53 hosted zone
Navigate to the Route 53 hosted zone page in AWS and click on the zone with your domain name. On the details page, click on the Delete zone button at the top, type delete in the dialog's field, and click the Delete button.
