# confluent local destroy

#### IMPORTANT
- The [confluent local](https://docs.confluent.io/confluent-cli/current/command-reference/local/index.html) commands are intended for a single-node development environment and
  are not suitable for a production environment. The data that are produced are transient and are intended to be
  temporary. For production-ready workflows, see [Install and Upgrade Confluent Platform](/platform/current/installation/index.html).

## Description

Delete an existing Confluent Platform run. All running services are stopped and the data and the log files of all services are deleted.

```none
confluent local destroy [flags]
```

## Global Flags

```none
-h, --help            Show help for this command.
    --unsafe-trace    Equivalent to -vvvv, but also log HTTP requests and responses which might contain plaintext secrets.
-v, --verbose count   Increase verbosity (-v for warn, -vv for info, -vvv for debug, -vvvv for trace).
```

## Examples

If you run the `confluent local destroy` command, your output will confirm that every service is stopped and the deleted filesystem path is printed:

```none
confluent local destroy
```
