The command "aws secretsmanager delete-secret --secret-id ${name_or_arn}" is used to delete a secret in AWS Secrets Manager.
Here's a breakdown of the command and its parameters:
- "aws secretsmanager" is the AWS Command Line Interface (CLI) command for accessing the Secrets Manager service.
- "delete-secret" is the specific operation to delete a secret.
- "--secret-id" is a parameter that specifies the identifier or ARN (Amazon Resource Name) of the secret to be deleted. The "${name_or_arn}" placeholder should be replaced with the actual name or ARN of the secret you want to delete.
By executing this command with a valid secret identifier or ARN, the specified secret will be permanently deleted from Secrets Manager and cannot be recovered. It's important to exercise caution when using this command to avoid unintentional deletion of important secrets.
