# DELETE /2020-05-31/streaming-distribution/{Id}

`DELETE /2020-05-31/streaming-distribution/{Id}`

Delete a streaming distribution. To delete an RTMP distribution using the CloudFront API, perform the following steps.

**To delete an RTMP distribution using the CloudFront API**:

1.  Disable the RTMP distribution.
    
2.  Submit a `GET Streaming Distribution Config` request to get the current configuration and the `Etag` header for the distribution.
    
3.  Update the XML document that was returned in the response to your `GET Streaming Distribution Config` request to change the value of `Enabled` to `false`.
    
4.  Submit a `PUT Streaming Distribution Config` request to update the configuration for your distribution. In the request body, include the XML document that you updated in Step 3. Then set the value of the HTTP `If-Match` header to the value of the `ETag` header that CloudFront returned when you submitted the `GET Streaming Distribution Config` request in Step 2.
    
5.  Review the response to the `PUT Streaming Distribution Config` request to confirm that the distribution was successfully disabled.
    
6.  Submit a `GET Streaming Distribution Config` request to confirm that your changes have propagated. When propagation is complete, the value of `Status` is `Deployed`.
    
7.  Submit a `DELETE Streaming Distribution` request. Set the value of the HTTP `If-Match` header to the value of the `ETag` header that CloudFront returned when you submitted the `GET Streaming Distribution Config` request in Step 2.
    
8.  Review the response to your `DELETE Streaming Distribution` request to confirm that the distribution was successfully deleted.
