• CLI
• API

• 1. Open the navigation menu , select Identity & Security, and then select Vault.
  2. Under List scope, select a compartment that contains the vault.
  3. On the Vaults page, select the name of the vault to open its details page.
  4. select Delete Vault.
  5. In the Confirm dialog box, type the name of the vault, and then choose the date and time that you want the vault to be deleted.
  6. Select Delete Vault.

• Open a command prompt and run oci kms management vault schedule-deletion to delete a vault:

  oci kms management vault schedule-deletion --vault-id <target_vault_id>

  For example:

  oci kms management vault schedule-deletion --vault-id ocid1.vault.region1.sea.exampleaaacu2.examplesrcvbtqe5wgrxn2jua3olmeausn5fauxseubwu5my5tf3w3	

  When you delete a vault, the vault and all its associated keys go into a pending deletion state until the waiting period expires. By default, this is 30 days, but can be set from a minimum of 7 days up to a maximum of 30 days. When a vault is deleted, all its associated keys are also deleted. If replication is configured, deleting a vault in the source region also deletes the vault and any keys in the vault in the destination region.

  For a complete list of parameters and values for CLI commands, see KMS CLI Command Reference.

• Use the ScheduleVaultDeletion API with the KMSVAULT endpoint to delete a vault replica.
