like, any of them. that's the vibe. ✨

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

So you wanna deregister a previously registered IMAGE? slay. that's literally what this does.

The IMAGE parameter is the ID of the Amazon Image to deregister.

And an Amazon Image may be:

  • an Amazon Machine Image (AMI), or
  • an Amazon Kernel Image (AKI), or
  • an Amazon Ramdisk Image (ARI).

that's the whole menu bestie, pick your fighter 🎀

👑 GENERAL OPTIONS 👑

⚠️ okay the [DEPRECATED] tag is right there in the original, so like… it's deprecated fr fr. don't come for me, I'm just the messenger 💀
