**To delete a service-linked role**

The following ``delete-service-linked-role`` example deletes the specified service-linked role that you no longer need. ::
    aws iam delete-service-linked-role --role-name AWSServiceRoleForLexBots

Output::

  {
      "DeletionTaskId": "task/aws-service-role/lex.amazonaws.com/AWSServiceRoleForLexBots/1a2b3c4d-1234-abcd-7890-abcdeEXAMPLE"
  }            

The deletion happens asynchronously. You can check the status of the deletion and confirm when it is done by using the ``get-service-linked-role-deletion-status`` command. For more information, see `Using Service-Linked Roles`_ in the *IAM User Guide*
