Server Load Balancer:DeleteListener

Last Updated:Oct 26, 2026

Deletes a load balancing listener.

Operation description

The DeleteListener operation is asynchronous. After you call this operation, the system returns a request ID, but the listener is not immediately deleted. The deletion task continues to run in the background. You can call GetListenerAttribute to query the deletion status of the listener:

  • If the listener is in the Deleting state, the listener is being deleted.

  • If the listener cannot be queried, the listener is deleted.

Try this API in OpenAPI Explorer, no manual signing needed. Successful calls auto-generate SDK code matching your parameters. Download it with built-in credential security for local usage.

Test

RAM authorization

The table below describes the authorization required to call this API. You can define it in a Resource Access Management (RAM) policy. The table's columns are detailed below:

  • Action: The actions can be used in the Action element of RAM permission policy statements to grant permissions to perform the operation.

  • API: The API that you can call to perform the action.

  • Access level: The predefined level of access granted for each API. Valid values: create, list, get, update, and delete.

  • Resource type: The type of the resource that supports authorization to perform the action. It indicates if the action supports resource-level permission. The specified resource must be compatible with the action. Otherwise, the policy will be ineffective.

    • For APIs with resource-level permissions, required resource types are marked with an asterisk (*). Specify the corresponding Alibaba Cloud Resource Name (ARN) in the Resource element of the policy.

    • For APIs without resource-level permissions, it is shown as All Resources. Use an asterisk (*) in the Resource element of the policy.

  • Condition key: The condition keys defined by the service. The key allows for granular control, applying to either actions alone or actions associated with specific resources. In addition to service-specific condition keys, Alibaba Cloud provides a set of common condition keys applicable across all RAM-supported services.

  • Dependent action: The dependent actions required to run the action. To complete the action, the RAM user or the RAM role must have the permissions to perform all dependent actions.

Request parameters

Parameter

Type

Required

Description

Example

ListenerId

string

Yes

The ID of the listener.

lsn-brx2y3hqdincizg***

DryRun

boolean

No

Specifies whether to only precheck the request. Valid values:

  • true: The system prechecks the request without deleting the listener. The precheck items include required parameters, request format, and service limits. If the request fails the precheck, the system returns the corresponding error. If the request passes the precheck, the system returns the DryRunOperation error code.

  • false (default): The system sends a normal request. If the request passes the precheck, the system returns an HTTP 2xx status code and performs the operation.

false

ClientToken

string

No

The client token that is used to ensure the idempotence of the request.

You can generate the parameter value on your client to ensure that it is unique across different requests. The client token supports only ASCII characters.

Note

If you do not specify this parameter, the system automatically uses the RequestId of the API request as the ClientToken. The RequestId of each API request is unique.
