Is there any way to delete all the inbound rules from a firewall without specifying the sources via Digital Ocean API?

Hello, @dvops
I don’t think that this is currently possible with the API.
You can check the docs for removing inbound rules via API:
https://developers.digitalocean.com/documentation/v2/#remove-rules-from-a-firewall
However as you already mentioned you need to specify the sources when doing the call:
Request Body:
{
"inbound_rules": [
{
"protocol": "tcp",
"ports": "3306",
"sources": {
"droplet_ids": [
49696269
]
}
}
],
"outbound_rules": [
{
"protocol": "tcp",
"ports": "3306",
"destinations": {
"droplet_ids": [
49696269
]
}
}
]
}
The best thing to do to get your voice heard regarding this would be to head over to our Product Ideas board and post a new idea, including as much information as possible for what you’d like to see implemented.
