Hi, I have a charge on my account. It says I have 168 ConfigRuleEvaluation charges. Can someone provide some steps to delete this? Thanks!

Hello.

"ConfigRuleEvaluations" is the price for a service called AWS Config.

Why not try running the shell script below to delete the AWS Config rules?
Execute the shell script using CloudShell.

for r in `aws ec2 describe-regions --query Regions[*].RegionName --output text`
do
    for channel_name in `aws configservice describe-delivery-channels --region $r --query DeliveryChannels[*].name --output text`
    do 
        recorder_name=`aws configservice describe-configuration-recorders --region $r --query ConfigurationRecorders[*].name --output text`
        aws configservice delete-configuration-recorder --configuration-recorder-name $recorder_name --region $r
        aws configservice delete-delivery-channel --delivery-channel-name $channel_name --region $r
    done
done

  • Okay, so I ran that shell script. Am I supposed to get any output when I run that? I didn't get any message saying it deleted those rules.

  • When I run this shell script, no response is displayed. You can confirm that no AWS Config rules remain by running the following command.

    aws configservice describe-delivery-channels

Hi,

Those charges are related to your use of the AWS Config service accessed on the AWS console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/config/home

Please check if you wish to continue with the use of that service's features or follow their steps for cleanup.

Please find some cost consideration guidance here - https://docs.aws.amazon.com/config/latest/developerguide/evaluate-config.html#config-cost-considerations and pricing information https://aws.amazon.com/config/pricing/

Thanks.
