HTTP request
 DELETE https://compute.googleapis.com/compute/v1/projects/{project}/regions/{region}/firewallPolicies/{firewallPolicy} 
The URL uses gRPC Transcoding syntax. To know more about valid error responses that can be thrown by this HTTP request, please refer to the service error catalog
Path parameters
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
| project |   Project ID for this request. | 
| region |   Name of the region scoping this request. | 
| firewallPolicy |   Name of the firewall policy to delete. | 
Query parameters
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
| requestId |   An optional request ID to identify requests. Specify a unique request ID so that if you must retry your request, the server will know to ignore the request if it has already been completed. For example, consider a situation where you make an initial request and the request times out. If you make the request again with the same request ID, the server can check if original operation with the same request ID was received, and if so, will ignore the second request. This prevents clients from accidentally creating duplicate commitments. The request ID must be a valid UUID 
with the exception that zero UUID is not supported (  | 
Request body
The request body must be empty.
Response body
Represents an Operation resource.
Google Compute Engine has three Operation resources:
You can use an operation resource to manage asynchronous API requests. For more information, read Handling API responses .
Operations can be global, regional or zonal.
- For global operations, use the globalOperationsresource.
- For regional operations, use the regionOperationsresource.
- For zonal operations, use the zoneOperationsresource.
For more information, read Global, Regional, and Zonal Resources .
Note that completed Operation resources have a limited retention period.
If successful, the response body contains data with the following structure:
| JSON representation | 
|---|
| { "kind" : string , "id" : string , "creationTimestamp" : string , "name" : string , "zone" : string , "clientOperationId" : string , "operationType" : string , "targetLink" : string , "targetId" : string , "status" : enum , "statusMessage" : string , "user" : string , "progress" : integer , "insertTime" : string , "startTime" : string , "endTime" : string , "error" : { "errors" : [ { "code" : string , "location" : string , "message" : string , "errorDetails" : [ { "errorInfo" : { "reason" : string , "domain" : string , "metadatas" : { string : string , ... } } , "quotaInfo" : { "metricName" : string , "limitName" : string , "dimensions" : { string : string , ... } , "limit" : number , "futureLimit" : number , "rolloutStatus" : enum } , "help" : { "links" : [ { "description" : string , "url" : string } ] } , "localizedMessage" : { "locale" : string , "message" : string } } ] } ] } , "warnings" : [ { "code" : enum , "message" : string , "data" : [ { "key" : string , "value" : string } ] } ] , "httpErrorStatusCode" : integer , "httpErrorMessage" : string , "selfLink" : string , "region" : string , "description" : string , "operationGroupId" : string , // Union field |

, update 
, or delete 
, and so on.
targetLink

[Output Only] The status of the operation, which can be one of the following: PENDING 
, RUNNING 
, or DONE 
.
user 
 string 
[Output Only] User who requested the operation, for example: user@example.com 
or alice_smith_identifier (global/workforcePools/example-com-us-employees) 
.
progress 
 integer 
[Output Only] An optional progress indicator that ranges from 0 to 100. There is no requirement that this be linear or support any granularity of operations. This should not be used to guess when the operation will be complete. This number should monotonically increase as the operation progresses.
startTime 
 string 
[Output Only] The time that this operation was started by the server. This value is in RFC3339 text format.
endTime 
 string 
[Output Only] The time that this operation was completed. This value is in RFC3339 text format.
error

error.errors[].message 
 string 
[Output Only] An optional, human-readable error message.
error.errors[].errorDetails[] 
 object 
[Output Only] An optional list of messages that contain the error details. There is a set of defined message types to use for providing details.The syntax depends on the error code. For example, QuotaExceededInfo will have details when the error code is QUOTA_EXCEEDED.
error.errors[].errorDetails[].errorInfo 
 object 
error.errors[].errorDetails[].errorInfo.reason 
 string 
The reason of the error. This is a constant value that identifies the proximate cause of the error. Error reasons are unique within a particular domain of errors. This should be at most 63 characters and match a regular expression of [A-Z][A-Z0-9_]+[A-Z0-9] 
, which represents UPPER_SNAKE_CASE.
error.errors[].errorDetails[].errorInfo.domain 
 string 
The logical grouping to which the "reason" belongs. The error domain is typically the registered service name of the tool or product that generates the error. Example: "pubsub.googleapis.com". If the error is generated by some common infrastructure, the error domain must be a globally unique value that identifies the infrastructure. For Google API infrastructure, the error domain is "googleapis.com".
error.errors[].errorDetails[].errorInfo.metadatas 
 map (key: string, value: string) 
Additional structured details about this error.
Keys must match a regular expression of [a-z][a-zA-Z0-9-_]+ 
but should ideally be lowerCamelCase. Also, they must be limited to 64 characters in length. When identifying the current value of an exceeded limit, the units should be contained in the key, not the value. For example, rather than {"instanceLimit": "100/request"}
