Delete Cloud Composer environments

Cloud Composer 3 | Cloud Composer 2 | Cloud Composer 1

This page explains how to delete your Cloud Composer environment.

Resources that are not deleted automatically

Deleting your environment does not delete the following data in your project:

  • Your environment's Cloud Storage bucket.
  • Cloud Logging logs.

To avoid incurring charges to your Google Cloud account, export your data and delete the environment's bucket and Cloud Logging logs, as needed.

If you use alerting policies to monitor your environment's metrics, delete these policies before deleting your environment.
