Terminate a pod
Permanently terminates and deletes a pod. This is irreversible:
compute is released, any mounts.persistent host-local storage is
destroyed with it (a mounts.network volume is only detached — the
volume itself is not deleted), and the pod no longer appears in
listPods.
Pods that belong to a Cluster cannot be terminated here — delete the
cluster via DELETE /v2/clusters/{id}.
Authorizations
Runpod API key authentication. Generate an API key in the Runpod console and send it in the Authorization header as Bearer <api_key>. Keys are scoped to the permissions granted when created; requests may return 403 when a valid key lacks access to the requested resource or action.
Path Parameters
Pod identifier
Response
