 This page explains how to delete your Cloud Composer environment.
 Resources that are not deleted automatically  Deleting your environment does not delete the following data in your project:
  Your environment's Cloud Storage bucket.  Cloud Logging logs.    To avoid incurring charges to your Google Cloud account, export your data and delete the environment's bucket  and Cloud Logging logs, as needed.
 Note:  As an alternative, you can reuse your environment's bucket by specifying it as a custom bucket  for a new environment. For example, you can do so to preserve existing policies or CI/CD integrations.   If you use alerting policies  to monitor your environment's metrics, delete these policies before deleting your environment.
 Your environment's cluster is deleted automatically  Warning:  Do not delete the GKE cluster of your environment manually. This happens automatically during the environment deletion. If you delete the cluster before the environment, then attempting to delete your environment results in an error. To fix this problem, see Troubleshooting .
