Deleting an API Scope
You delete a scope to remove it from the API permanently.
When a scope is deleted from the API definition, API Gateway deletes the existing associations between the scope and the collection of resources, methods, or operations in the API. But, the collection of resources, methods, or operations continue to exist in the API.
To delete a scope
1. Click APIs in the title navigation bar.
A list of all registered APIs appears.
2. Click the name of the required API.
This opens the API details page.
3. Click Edit.
If the API is active, API Gateway displays a warning message to let you know that the API is active.
4. Click the Scopes tab.
This tab displays a list of scopes available with the API.
5. In the List of scopes section, locate the name of the scope you want to delete.
6. Click the Delete (
) icon next to the scope name. 7. Click Yes in the confirmation dialog.
The scope is removed from the List of scopes section.
8. Click Save to save the updated API.
Activate the API, if it is not active, to put it into effect.
