Description

The Remove-AzBatchTask cmdlet deletes an Azure Batch task. This cmdlet prompts you for confirmation, unless you specify the Force parameter.

Examples

Example 1: Delete a Batch task by ID

Remove-AzBatchTask -JobId "Job-000001" -Id "Task23" -BatchContext $Context

This command deletes a task that has the ID Task23 under the job that has the ID Job-000001. The command prompts you for confirmation. Use the Get-AzBatchAccountKey cmdlet to assign a context to the $Context variable.

Example 2: Delete a Batch task by using the pipeline without confirmation

Get-AzBatchTask -JobId "Job-000001" -Id "Task26" -BatchContext $Context | Remove-AzBatchTask -Force -BatchContext $Context

This command gets the Batch task that has the ID Task26 in the job that has the ID Job-000001 by using the Get-AzBatchTask cmdlet. The command passes that task to the current cmdlet by using the pipeline operator. The command deletes that task. This command specifies the Force parameter. Therefore, the command does not prompt you for confirmation.

Parameters

-BatchContext

Specifies the BatchAccountContext instance that this cmdlet uses to interact with the Batch service. If you use the Get-AzBatchAccount cmdlet to get your BatchAccountContext, then Microsoft Entra authentication will be used when interacting with the Batch service. To use shared key authentication instead, use the Get-AzBatchAccountKey cmdlet to get a BatchAccountContext object with its access keys populated. When using shared key authentication, the primary access key is used by default. To change the key to use, set the BatchAccountContext.KeyInUse property.
