    Deletes a resource account member from a resource directory.

    Operation description

    Before you delete a member, call CheckAccountDelete and GetAccountDeletionCheckResult to verify that the member meets deletion requirements. Only members that pass the check can be deleted.

    After you submit a deletion request, call GetAccountDeletionStatus to query the deletion status. After a member is deleted, all resources and data within it are removed and you can no longer use the member to log on to the Alibaba Cloud Management Console. The member cannot be recovered. Proceed with caution. Delete a member of the resource account type.
