Delete inference API

editThis functionality is in technical preview and may be changed or removed in a future release. Elastic will work to fix any issues, but features in technical preview are not subject to the support SLA of official GA features.
Deletes an inference model deployment.
The inference APIs enable you to use certain services, such as ELSER, OpenAI, or Hugging Face, in your cluster. This is not the same feature that you can use on an ML node with custom machine learning models. If you want to train and use your own model, use the Machine learning trained model APIs.
Request
editDELETE /_inference/<task_type>/<model_id>
Prerequisites
edit-
Requires the
manage
cluster privilege.
Path parameters
edit- <model_id>
- (Required, string) The unique identifier of the inference model to delete.
- <task_type>
- (Required, string) The type of inference task that the model performs.
Examples
editThe following API call deletes the my-elser-model
inference model that can
perform sparse_embedding
tasks.
response = client.inference.delete_model( task_type: 'sparse_embedding', model_id: 'my-elser-model' ) puts response
DELETE /_inference/sparse_embedding/my-elser-model
The API returns the following response:
{ "acknowledged": true }
