This topic describes how to delete a flow using the console and Alibaba Cloud CLI.
Background
Deleting a flow is an asynchronous operation. A successful API call returns a response indicating that the deletion has started. After a flow is deleted, its execution history is permanently removed and can no longer be queried. Any ongoing execution stops after its current step is complete. You can create a new flow with the same name, but it will have a new, unique ID and is not affected by the original flow.
