For more information, see [Recovery Point Objective (RPO)](/netapp/volumes/docs/protect-data/about-volume-replication#recovery_point_objective_rpo).\n\n- You can delete manual and scheduled snapshots.\n\n- You can't delete internal snapshots manually.\n\n- Deletion fails if the last backup was created using the snapshot you want to\n delete.\n\n- Deletion fails if an existing snapshot was specified for a manual backup and\n that instance of the backup is the latest captured backup.\n\n### Delete a snapshot\n\nUse the following instructions to delete a snapshot using the Google Cloud console\nor Google Cloud CLI: \n\n### Console\n\n1. Go to **NetApp Volumes page** in the Google Cloud console.\n\n [Go to NetApp Volumes](https://console.cloud.google.com/netapp/volumes)\n2. Click **Volumes**.\n\n3. Select the volume you want to edit.\n\n4. Click more_vert\n **Show more**.\n\n5. Select **Delete**.\n\n6. To confirm deletion, enter the snapshot name in the **Snapshot name**\n field.\n\n7. Click **Delete**.\n\n### gcloud\n\nRun the following command to delete a snapshot: \n\n```bash\n gcloud netapp volumes snapshots delete NAME \\\n --project=PROJECT_ID \\\n --location=LOCATION \\\n --volume=VOLUME_NAME\n```\n\nReplace the following details:\n\n- \u003cvar translate=\"no\"\u003eNAME\u003c/var\u003e: the name of the snapshot you want to delete.\n\n- \u003cvar translate=\"no\"\u003ePROJECT_ID\u003c/var\u003e: the project ID of the project you\n created the snapshot in.\n\n- \u003cvar translate=\"no\"\u003eLOCATION\u003c/var\u003e: the location of the volume.\n\n- \u003cvar translate=\"no\"\u003eVOLUME\u003c/var\u003e the name of the snapshot's volume.\n\nFor more options, see [Google Cloud SDK documentation for NetApp Volumes volume snapshots](/sdk/gcloud/reference/netapp/volumes/snapshots).\n\nWhat's next\n-----------\n\nRead about [volume reversion](/netapp/volumes/docs/configure-and-use/volume-snapshots/revert-volume)."]]
