This assumes you are familiar with the basic usage of the Gateway Migration Utility. Before you delete a private key from an API Gateway, you may want to list the private keys that are already in the API Gateway. Let's say you have a private key that has the following ID.
<l7:Id>00000000000000000000000000000002:key001</l7:Id>
Issue this command to delete the private key.
/path/to/GatewayMigrationUtility.sh restman
-host apig.example.com
-port 8443
-username john.doe
-password f5VPX0yUJPg.m4BrjdgMv84UgktddJD3xA
-method DELETE
-path '1.0/privateKeys/00000000000000000000000000000002:key001'
Or the -argFile option can be used, to reduce the number of options that are used on the command line.
/path/to/GatewayMigrationUtility.sh restman
-argFile example.properties
-method DELETE
-path '1.0/privateKeys/00000000000000000000000000000002:key001'
Something like this should be returned, which actually indicates that the private key was succesfully deleted.
