## Examples

#### Authentication credentials

The examples below assume your InfluxDB **host**, **organization**, and **token** are
provided by either the [active `influx` CLI configuration](/influxdb/cloud-serverless/reference/cli/influx/#provide-required-authentication-credentials) or by environment variables (`INFLUX_HOST`, `INFLUX_ORG`, and `INFLUX_TOKEN`).
If you do not have a CLI configuration set up or the environment variables set, include these required credentials for each command with the following flags:

* `--host`: [InfluxDB host](/influxdb/cloud-serverless/reference/urls/)
* `-o, --org` or `--org-id`: InfluxDB organization name or ID
* `-t, --token`: InfluxDB API token

### Delete a replication

1. Use `influx replication list` to get the ID for the replication you want to delete.

   ```
   $ influx replication list
   ID			        Name		Org ID
   0ooxX0xxXo0x      	    myreplication    [...]
   ```

2. Use the following command to delete the replication:

   ```
   influx replication delete --id 0ooxX0xxXo0x
   ```
