Delete an Instance

You can delete the specified Cubes instance within a data center.

Warning:

• If the query parameter is set to true, the attached storage volumes will also be removed; otherwise, a separate API call must be made for these actions.

• Deleting an instance also deletes the direct-attached storage NVMe volume. Make a snapshot first in case you need to recreate the instance with the appropriate data device later.
