Possible to clear out all IoT certs, things etc?

Question

Hello,  
  
I've been learning and using the aws-sdk to create IoT things, groups and cores. I'd really like to remove all of our test IoT things from our account as we move into production, is this possible? or do I have to write a new script that detaches policies before deleting etc? which is going to be quite time consuming.  
  
Thanks.

Answer

If possible, please use a separate account for managing production devices. You may need test account for future batch of devices. It is always the safest to manage test and production devices in different accounts. If you want to manage them in a single account, then you are right about the scripting the APIs. You need to manually detach things, policies from certificates and delete individual resources. We do not have a way to delete everything at one shot as customers might accidentally misuse the API and wipe out their devices.  
  
Hope it helps,
