Purge a Release

When an older release is not needed anymore or your latest release has an issue and you want to roll back or stop its rollout, you can purge a release to delete all of its assets from the CrabNebula Cloud platform.

Caution

Purging a release is an irreversible action that destroys all of its assets.

Caution

If the purged release is the latest release of a given channel the CDN updater automatically rolls back to the previous release (by publish date instead of semantic versioning). If that is not desired, you must publish a new release before purging the latest.

There are two ways to purge a release:

• Purging with the Cloud Platform
• Purging with the CLI

Purging with the Cloud Platform

A release can be purged by visiting the respective “Release” page on the CrabNebula Cloud platform. Clicking the “Purge release” button in the bottom-left corner will purge the release. This action can only be done by admins.

Purging with the CLI

In order to purge a release with the CLI you will need:

• Organization slug
• Application slug
• Release ID or version

Tip

Be sure to follow the instructions to setup the CrabNebula Cloud CLI before continuing.

To purge a release run the following command:

cn release purge {org-slug/app-slug} {release-id or version}
