# Use `DetachGroupPolicy` with a CLI
<a name="iam_example_iam_DetachGroupPolicy_section"></a>

The following code examples show how to use `DetachGroupPolicy`.

------
#### [ CLI ]

**AWS CLI**  
**To detach a policy from a group**  
This example removes the managed policy with the ARN `arn:aws:iam::123456789012:policy/TesterAccessPolicy` from the group called `Testers`.  

```
aws iam detach-group-policy \
    --group-name Testers \
    --policy-arn arn:aws:iam::123456789012:policy/TesterAccessPolicy
```
This command produces no output.  
For more information, see [Managing IAM user groups](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/id_groups_manage.html) in the *AWS IAM User Guide*.  
+  For API details, see [DetachGroupPolicy](https://awscli.amazonaws.com/v2/documentation/api/latest/reference/iam/detach-group-policy.html) in *AWS CLI Command Reference*. 

------
#### [ PowerShell ]

**Tools for PowerShell V4**  
**Example 1: This example detaches the managed group policy whose ARN is `arn:aws:iam::123456789012:policy/TesterAccessPolicy` from the group named `Testers`.**  

```
Unregister-IAMGroupPolicy -GroupName Testers -PolicyArn arn:aws:iam::123456789012:policy/TesterAccessPolicy
```
**Example 2: This example finds all the managed policies that are attached to the group named `Testers` and detaches them from the group.**  

```
Get-IAMAttachedGroupPolicies -GroupName Testers | Unregister-IAMGroupPolicy -Groupname Testers
```
+  For API details, see [DetachGroupPolicy](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/powershell/v4/reference) in *AWS Tools for PowerShell Cmdlet Reference (V4)*. 

**Tools for PowerShell V5**  
**Example 1: This example detaches the managed group policy whose ARN is `arn:aws:iam::123456789012:policy/TesterAccessPolicy` from the group named `Testers`.**  

```
Unregister-IAMGroupPolicy -GroupName Testers -PolicyArn arn:aws:iam::123456789012:policy/TesterAccessPolicy
```
**Example 2: This example finds all the managed policies that are attached to the group named `Testers` and detaches them from the group.**  

```
Get-IAMAttachedGroupPolicies -GroupName Testers | Unregister-IAMGroupPolicy -Groupname Testers
```
