Azure Front Door Profile stuck in Deleting state – unable to remove

Service: Azure Front Door (Standard/Premium)

Tier: Standard (or Premium – whichever applies)

Resource Group: qd-dashboard

Subscription ID: 2c****-****-****-86**-94137*******

Front Door ID: 92*****-7b**-4***-9***-c72b******

Problem: I attempted to delete my Front Door Standard profile qd-cdn, but it's stuck in the Deleting state. I have attempted to delete via Azure CLI, Portal, and API Resource Explorer all fail with a Conflict error, indicating an operation is still in progress. Child resources like endpoints and domains are either already deleted or unreachable (some return ParentResourceNotFound).

Request: Please perform a backend cleanup and remove the stuck Front Door profile and its zombie dependencies. I no longer need this profile and would like it fully removed from my subscription.

    Hello @Idmon Yildiz

    Customers using Azure Front Door and Content Delivery Network (CDN) have experienced high latency or timeouts when performing service management operations. These operations include provisioning new Azure Front Door profiles, updating endpoints, origin groups, routes, purging cache content, and rulesets on existing profiles. However, there was no impact on the data plane or the service's ability to serve customer traffic.

    The team has investigated and mitigated the issue.

    You can now perform any operations on the Azure Front Door and CDN profiles. Please let us know if the issue persists.

    We apologize for the inconvenience caused.


    I hope this has been helpful!
