    Hi @Radu
    Ensure you have the necessary permissions to delete resources, typically requiring a Contributor or Owner role. Access the Azure portal.

    Navigate to the "All resources" or "Resource groups" section in the left-navigation pane.

    Locate the Azure Cognitive Search resource you wish to delete.

    Select the resource and choose the delete option. To remove all associated services, you may delete the entire resource group, which will eliminate all resources within it.

    After deletion, verify that the service is no longer listed in your resource group and that you are no longer incurring charges for it.
    If you would like to delete the Cognitive Services account
    kindly follow below documentation:
    az cognitiveservices account delete
    az search shared-private-link-resource delete

    Thank for answering Marcin Policht
