Deleting a Certificate Version

Delete a certificate version that you don't need.

You can only delete a certificate version with a rotation state of deprecated. To have a deprecated version, you must also have a current version and a previous version. Unless you want to delete a certificate entirely, you must maintain at least one version of the certificate. When you delete a certificate version, the version isn't immediately deleted. By default, a certificate version is permanently deleted 30 days after you schedule it for deletion. At minimum, one day must elapse before the certificate version is permanently deleted.

1. Open the navigation menu and click Identity & Security.
2. Under Certificates, click Certificates.
3. From the list of certificates in the compartment, click the name of the certificate with the certificate version that you want to delete.
  
  To find a certificate in a different compartment, under List scope, choose a different compartment.
4. Under Resources, click Versions.
5. Under Versions, find the certificate version that you want to delete.
6. Click the Actions menu () for the certificate version, and select Delete Version.
7. Confirm the deletion by entering the certificate version number.
8. Click Select deletion date, and then choose the date that you want to delete the certificate version permanently.
9. Click Delete Version.

Use the oci certs-mgmt certificate-version schedule-deletion command and required parameters to delete a certificate version:

oci certs-mgmt certificate-version schedule-deletion --certificate-id <certificate_OCID> --version-number <certificate_version_number>

For example:

oci certs-mgmt certificate-version schedule-deletion --certificate-id ocid1.certificate.oc1.<region>.<unique_ID> --version-number 2
