Usage notes¶

This command is destructive. Unless you pass --force, the CLI prompts you to confirm before it drops anything. It drops the following objects:

The Application Service (or plain service) named <database>.<schema>.<app>.
Code storage, based on the backend in snowflake.yml:
- Workspace backend (code_workspace): Only this app’s subdirectory is cleared. The workspace itself is kept, because it can be shared across apps (for example, the default SNOWFLAKE_APPS workspace).
- Stage backend (code_stage, or the <app>_CODE fallback): The stage is dropped.

The command does not drop the artifact repository or previously built package versions. If you need to redeploy later, run snow app deploy again.

The app’s database and schema come from snowflake.yml. For those fields, see the snowflake.yml reference.

Examples¶

Tear down the app (with confirmation prompt):

snow app teardown

Tear down without confirmation:

snow app teardown --force
