Delete a stream

Deleting a stream that you no longer need in Datastream frees up your project quota and prevents further charges.

To ensure that all in-flight data transfers cleanly from your source to the destination, pause the stream first. Wait for Datastream to confirm the paused status before you delete it.

Delete a stream

1. Go to the Streams page in the Google Cloud Console.

   Go to the Streams page

2. Click the stream that you want to delete.

3. As a best practice, in the Stream status pane of the Stream details page, verify that the status of the stream isn't Running. If it is, then pause the stream.

4. Click DELETE.

5. In the dialog, enter Delete in the text field, and then click DELETE.
