    This action deletes a web distribution. To delete a web distribution using the CloudFront API, perform the following steps.

    To delete a web distribution using the CloudFront API:

    1. Disable the web distribution

    2. Submit a GET Distribution Config request to get the current configuration and the Etag header for the distribution.

    3. Update the XML document that was returned in the response to your GET Distribution Config request to change the value of Enabled to false.

    4. Submit a PUT Distribution Config request to update the configuration for your distribution. In the request body, include the XML document that you updated in Step 3. Set the value of the HTTP If-Match header to the value of the ETag header that CloudFront returned when you submitted the GET Distribution Config request in Step 2.

    5. Review the response to the PUT Distribution Config request to confirm that the distribution was successfully disabled.

    6. Submit a GET Distribution request to confirm that your changes have propagated. When propagation is complete, the value of Status is Deployed.

    7. Submit a DELETE Distribution request. Set the value of the HTTP If-Match header to the value of the ETag header that CloudFront returned when you submitted the GET Distribution Config request in Step 6.

    8. Review the response to your DELETE Distribution request to confirm that the distribution was successfully deleted.
