Delete a Volume - Documentation

Use novita.volume.destroy() to permanently delete a volume by its ID. Deleting a volume is irreversible — its data cannot be recovered.

Warning: Destroying a volume permanently deletes it and all data it holds. This cannot be undone.

Delete a volume

novita.volume.destroy() returns a boolean: true if the volume was deleted, and false if no volume with that ID was found.

import { Novita } from 'novita-sandbox'

const novita = new Novita()

const deleted = await novita.volume.destroy('vol_123')
if (deleted) {
  console.log('Volume deleted')
} else {
  console.log('Volume not found')
}

from novita_sandbox import Novita

novita = Novita()

deleted = novita.volume.destroy("vol_123")
if deleted:
    print("Volume deleted")
else:
    print("Volume not found")

novita volume delete <volume_id>
