Deleting Addons

You can delete installed addons from your cluster either individually or all at once. There are two ways to delete addons:

  1. UI-based deletion - Delete addons directly from the Akuity Platform interface
  2. Manual deletion - Delete addons manually from your Git repository

Delete a Single Addon

Option 1: UI-based Deletion

To delete a single addon using the Akuity Platform interface:

  1. Go to the Addons tab in your ArgoCD instance.

  2. Click on the specific addon you want to delete.

  3. In the addon details view, click the three-dot menu (⋮) in the top right corner.

  4. Select Delete from the dropdown menu.

  5. Confirm the deletion when prompted.

The addon will be automatically removed from your Git repository and uninstalled from the cluster.

Option 2: Manual Deletion

To delete a single addon manually:

  1. Delete the addon from your Git repository.
  2. Go to the Addons tab in your ArgoCD instance. The addon will no longer be listed.

Delete All Addons

To delete all addons from a repository at once, follow these steps:

  1. Go to the Addons tab in your ArgoCD instance.

  2. Click on Connect Addons Repo.

  3. Click on the Delete button next to the repository you want to remove.

  4. All addons from the repository will be deleted from your cluster.

Note

Be aware that an addon may still appear if its child applications are stuck in a deletion state. This can occur due to an inactive cluster or issues with resource deletion. In such cases, ensure that the target clusters are live and resolve any deletion issues. Alternatively, you can enable the non-cascade deletion option in the addon configuration to unblock the deletion; however, related resources might continue to be deployed on the clusters.
