|
The "kv delete" command disables a secrets engine at a given PATH. The
|
|
argument corresponds to the enabled PATH of the engine, not the TYPE! All
|
|
secrets created by this engine are revoked and its Vault data is removed.

# kv delete
|
|
|
|
The `kv delete` command deletes the data for the provided path in
|
|
the key/value secrets engine. If using K/V Version 2, its versioned data will
|
|
not be fully removed, but marked as deleted and will no longer be returned in
|
|
normal get requests.
|
|
|
|
## Examples
|
|
|
|
Delete the latest version of the key "creds":
|
|
|
|
```shell-session
|
|
$ vault kv delete secret/creds
|
|
Success! Data deleted (if it existed) at: secret/creds
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**[K/V Version 2]** Delete version 11 of key "creds":
|
|
|
|
```shell-session
|
|
$ vault kv delete -versions=11 secret/creds
|
|
Success! Data deleted (if it existed) at: secret/creds
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
