aws autoscaling delete-auto-scaling-group
Deletes the specified Auto Scaling group. If the group has instances or scaling activities in progress, you must specify the option to force the deletion in order for it to succeed. If the group has policies, deleting the group deletes the policies, the underlying alarm actions, and any alarm that no longer has an associated action. To remove instances from the Auto Scaling group before deleting it, call the DetachInstances API with the list of instances and the option to decrement the desired capacity. This ensures that Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling does not launch replacement instances. To terminate all instances before deleting the Auto Scaling group, call the UpdateAutoScalingGroup API and set the minimum size and desired capacity of the Auto Scaling group to zero

| Name | Description |
|---|---|
--auto-scaling-group-name <string> | The name of the Auto Scaling group |
--force-delete | Specifies that the group is to be deleted along with all instances associated with the group, without waiting for all instances to be terminated. This parameter also deletes any outstanding lifecycle actions associated with the group |
--no-force-delete | Specifies that the group is to be deleted along with all instances associated with the group, without waiting for all instances to be terminated. This parameter also deletes any outstanding lifecycle actions associated with the group |
--cli-input-json <string> | Performs service operation based on the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by ``--generate-cli-skeleton``. If other arguments are provided on the command line, the CLI values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally |
--generate-cli-skeleton <string> | Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value ``input``, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for ``--cli-input-json``. If provided with the value ``output``, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command |
