Use the delete REST API method for the PlacementGroup resource or the PlacementGroupService/Delete gRPC API call.

With Terraform, you can quickly create a cloud infrastructure in Nebius Israel and manage it using configuration files. They store the infrastructure description in HashiCorp Configuration Language (HCL). Terraform and its providers are distributed under the Business Source License.

For more information about the provider resources, see the documentation on the Terraform website.

If you change the configuration files, Terraform automatically determines which part of your configuration is already deployed and what should be added or removed.

For more information about the Terraform, see the documentation.

To delete a placement group created with Terraform:

Open the Terraform configuration file and delete the fragment with the placement group description.

Example placement group description in a Terraform configuration:
```
...
resource "yandex_compute_placement_group" "group1" {
  name        = "test-pg"
  folder_id   = "abc*********123"
  description = "my description"
}
...
```
In the command line, go to the directory with the Terraform configuration file.
Check the configuration using this command:
```
terraform validate
```
If the configuration is correct, you will get this message:
```
Success! The configuration is valid.
```
Run this command:
```
terraform plan
```
The terminal will display a list of resources with parameters. No changes are made at this step. If the configuration contains any errors, Terraform will point them out.
Apply the configuration changes:
```
terraform apply
```
Confirm the changes: type yes into the terminal and press Enter.

You can verify the changes using the management console or the CLI command below:
```
yc compute placement-group list
```
