## Synopsis


If the Workload has associated Jobs, the command will prompt for deletion approval of the affected Jobs, and delete them. The Workload will then be asynchronously deleted by the garbage collector. If there are no associated Jobs, the command will directly delete the Workload.

```
kueuectl delete workload NAME [--yes] [--all] [--dry-run STRATEGY]
```


## Examples

```
  # Delete the Workload
  kueuectl delete kueueworkload my-workload
```
