Deleting a CloudKey

The key is disabled in the cloud and cannot be used by any applications. You can set the date when the key is permanently deleted.

  1. Log into the KeyControl webGUI using an account with Cloud Admin privileges.

  2. In the top menu bar, click BYOK.
  3. Click the CloudKeys tab.

  4. Select the CloudKey that you want to delete.

  5. Click Actions > Delete CloudKey.

  6. On the confirmation screen, enter the number of days when the CloudKey will be permanently deleted and click Delete.

    The maximum number of days is 30 for AWS and 90 for Azure.

    The minimum number of days is 7 or, on Azure, if Purge Protection is enabled for, then the minimum number of days is defined by the Key Vault's retention period.

    Note: You can cancel the deletion at any time before the CloudKey is permanently deleted.
