Undeploy an API proxy revision from your cluster as described in the following sections.
Note that when you undeploy a revision:
- Apigee does not roll the revision back to the previously deployed revision.
- After undeploying, no revisions of the API proxy are deployed in the environment.
Undeploying an API proxy is similar todeleting an API proxy, exceptthat when you undeploy a revision you can choose to edit it in the UI and later re-deploy it. If youdelete the API proxy, it is no longer available to edit.
Apigee in Cloud console
To undeploy an API proxy using the UI:
In the Google Cloud console, go to theProxy Development> API Proxies page.
Select the API proxy that you want to undeploy. The UI displays the API proxy'sOverview view.
In theDeployments section, clickUndeploy.

- In theUndeploy dialog, clickConfirm.
Classic UI
To undeploy an API proxy using the UI:
- Sign in to theApigee UI.
- SelectDevelop > API Proxies.
The UI displays a list of current API proxies for the selected environment:

Select the API proxy that you want to undeploy.
The UI displays the API proxy'sOverview view.
- In the desired environment row, expand theRevision drop-down list and selectUndeploy:

The UI prompts you to confirm the version you want to undeploy:

- ClickUndeploy.
The UI updates the status to show that the revision was undeployed from the cluster immediately:

Note, though, that the undeployment process can take some time (in theeventually consistent model). In fact, when you clickUndeploy, Apigeebegins the process of undeploying the selected revision from that environment in the cluster.
For information on how to check the status of the undeployed proxy, seeViewing deployment status.
Alternatively, you can undeploy the current revision that you are editing in theDevelop tab:
- Click theDeploy to:env_name drop-down list:

The UI displays a list of environments. In theRevision column, the UI lists the currently deployed revision (or&emdash; if none), and prompts you withDeployrevision andUndeploy buttons.
- Click theUndeploy button for the desired environment.
The UI prompts you to confirm the version you want to undeploy:

- Click theUndeploy button.
The UI updates the status to show that the revision was undeployed immediately. However, the undeployment process can take some time (in theeventually consistent model). When you clickUndeploy, Apigee begins the process of undeploying the selected revision from that environment.

curl "https://apigee.googleapis.com/v1/organizations/$ORG/environments/$ENV/apis/$API/revisions/$REV/deployments" \ -X DELETE \ -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN"
Where$TOKEN is set to your OAuth 2.0 access token, as described inObtaining an OAuth 2.0 access token. For information about thecurl options used in this example, seeUsing curl. For a description of environment variables you can use, seeSettingenvironment variables for Apigee API requests.

gcloud
The following sections provide examples of usinggcloud alpha apigee CLI commands to undeploy API proxy revisions and validate the undeployment.
- Undeploying an API proxy revision using the gcloud CLI
- Validating the undeployment of an API proxy revision using the gcloud CLI
For more information and a description of the environment variables used in the examples,seeGetting started using gcloud with Apigee.
Undeploying an API proxy revision using the gcloud CLI
To undeploy an API proxy revision, use the following gcloud command:
gcloud alpha apigee apis undeploy$REV --api=$API --environment=$ENV
The following provides an example of the response:
Using Apigee organization `my-org`
Validating the undeployment of an API proxy revision using the gcloud CLI
To validate that the API proxy revision has been undeployed from the environment, use the following gcloud command:
gcloud alpha apigee deployments list --api=$API --environment=$ENV
The following provides an example of the response:
Using Apigee organization `my-org`Listed 0 items.
