Delete a feature view

Deleting a feature view doesn't cancel ongoing online serving operations. You need to stop any active online serving operation that's currently active from the feature view you want to delete. Otherwise, the online serving operation fails after you delete the feature view.

Use the following samples to delete a feature view from an online store in your project.

Console

Use the following instructions to delete a feature view using the Google Cloud console.

1. In the Vertex AI section of the Google Cloud console, go to the Feature Store page.

   Go to the Feature Store page

2. Click Online store.

3. Click the name of the online store to view its details on the Online store details page.

4. In the Feature views section, XZselect checkbox next to the feature view that you want to delete.

5. Click Delete and then click Confirm.

REST

To delete a FeatureView instance, send a DELETE request by using the featureViews.delete method.

Before using any of the request data, make the following replacements:

• LOCATION_ID: Region where the online store is located, such as us-central1.
• PROJECT_ID: Your project ID.
• FEATUREONLINESTORE_NAME: The name of the online store containing the feature view.
• FEATUREVIEW_NAME: The name of the feature view you want to delete.

HTTP method and URL:

DELETE https://LOCATION_ID-aiplatform.googleapis.com/v1/projects/PROJECT_ID/locations/LOCATION_ID/featureOnlineStores/FEATUREONLINESTORE_NAME/featureViews/FEATUREVIEW_NAME

To send your request, choose one of these options:

curl

Execute the following command:

curl -X DELETE \
     -H "Authorization: Bearer $(gcloud auth print-access-token)" \
     "https://LOCATION_ID-aiplatform.googleapis.com/v1/projects/PROJECT_ID/locations/LOCATION_ID/featureOnlineStores/FEATUREONLINESTORE_NAME/featureViews/FEATUREVIEW_NAME"

PowerShell
