Autoscalers: delete

Requires authorization

Deletes the specified Autoscaler resource. This requests returns a Zone Operation resource, which allows you to view the status of your request. You can query the corresponding zone operation for an update status of your request. Once the zone operation returns DONE , the Autoscaler resource was successfully deleted. Try it now .

The autoscaler collects usage data from your virtual machines instances in order to be able to scale up and down the number of replicas required for your scenario. If you stop the autoscaler, or delete the autoscaler configuration from your deployment, this data is deleted as well.

`clientOperationId`	`string`	[Output Only] An optional identifier given the client when the operation was initiated. Must be unique for all operation resources in the project.
`operationType`	`string`	[Output Only] Type of the operation. Operations include `insert` , `update` , and `delete` .
`targetLink`	`string`	[Output Only] URL of the resource the operation is modifying.
`targetId`	`unsigned long`	[Output Only] A unique target ID which identifies the version of the target resource that is being modified.
