How to bulk delete lambda functions using AWS Cli

I have around 200 lambda functions that I need to delete. Using the console I can only delete one at a time, which would be really painful. Does anyone know a cli command to bulk delete all the functions? Thanks!

Solution

  • I've just found an answer using an old script to delete IAM users I had:

    aws lambda list-functions --region us-east-1 | jq -r '.Functions | .[] | .FunctionName' |
while read uname1; do
echo "Deleting $uname1";
aws lambda delete-function --region us-east-1 --function-name $uname1;
done
