Delete a credential

You can delete a credential as long as no environment is currently using it.

Before you begin

A credential can only be deleted if it is not currently being used by any environments. If the credential that you are trying to delete is currently being used by one or more environments, you must remove the dependency by either deleting all such environments or changing their credential.
