Delete Inference Component Sagemaker

Question

Hello !
I'm trying to delete some inference components from deleted endpoints.
I was trying differents methods by aws cli or boto3.

```
aws sagemaker list-inference-components --region eu-central-1

}

When I'm trying to delete one of the inference components I receive the error

aws sagemaker delete-inference-component --inference-component-name dev-epostbox-v1-summarization-inference-0

An error occurred (ValidationException) when calling the DeleteInferenceComponent operation: Could not find endpoint "dev-epostbox-v1-summarization-model".

What should I do?

Understood on your latest comment, Alex (no endpoint in service).  Have you tried using the ARN instead?

```
aws sagemaker delete-inference-component --inference-component-name "arn:aws:sagemaker:eu-central-1:904977793552:inference-component/dev-epostbox-v1-summarization-inference-0"
```

I would also ensure that you have the latest copy of the [AWS CLI version 2](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/getting-started-install.html)

If the above solves the issue, please choose this as the Accepted Answer so others on re:Post may benefit - Thank you!

Hi,

Your objects seem to be inference endpoints.

So, can you try `aws sagemaker delete-endpoint` ?

See https://awscli.amazonaws.com/v2/documentation/api/latest/reference/sagemaker/delete-endpoint.html

Best,

Didier

Hi, Alex

Try the preliminary steps included below also.

1. List and Delete the Endpoint Configurations

```
aws sagemaker list-endpoint-configs
aws sagemaker delete-endpoint-config --endpoint-config-name 
```

2. List the Endpoints

```
aws sagemaker list-endpoints
```

3. List the inference components

```
aws sagemaker list-inference-components
```

4. If you want to filter only the endpoint-associated inference component, you can use the option like below:

```
aws sagemaker list-inference-components --endpoint-name 
```

5. Delete the inference component

```
aws sagemaker delete-inference-component --inference-component-name 
```

It will take a minute or two to completely delete it.

You can check whether it is deleted with the command in step4 (list the inference component).

6. Delete the endpoint

```
aws sagemaker delete-endpoint --endpoint-name 
```
