    Hi @sdusane 

     

    For AEMaaCS you can try something like:

    curl -H "Authorizatin: Bearer [token]" -F":operation=delete" https://author-p[ProgramID]-e[EnvironmentID].adobeaemcloud.com/var/acs-commons/mcp/instances

     

    Replace token, ProgramID, EnvironmentID with your project specific values. And try.

    I recommend to do it on lower envs first, to see how it goes.

    To delete the folder /var/acs-commons/mcp/instances in an AEM Cloud instance using cURL: curl -u <username>:<password> -X DELETE "https://<aem-instance-url>/bin/rep:deleteNode.jsp?path=/var/acs-commons/mcp/instances"

    • Replace <username>, <password>, and <aem-instance-url> with your AEM credentials and instance URL.
    • This deletes the folder and its contents from the JCR repository.

      I don't have access to a cloud instance at the moment. I see what I can do.

       

      But meanwhile, I just observed I have a typo in my example. Instead of

      Authorizatin

      it should be

      Authorization
