1can you add your code? we can't delete lambda@edge until it is completely disassociated from cloudfront! – Balu Vyamajala Apr 01 '21 at 06:54

Did you take a look at the documentation as was suggested in the error message? – luk2302 Apr 01 '21 at 07:51

When deleting a CloudFormation Stack with CloudFront resource and associated Lambda@edge - CloudFormation first initiate a delete request for the CloudFront resource and the links to lambda@edge, since the lambda@edge is replicated to edges locations it takes up to a few hours to complete the links deletion.
My workaround is to run the complete clean-up in two phases -
Delete the stack and ignore the
DELETE_FAILEDstatus if just the lambda was failed to be deleted (and the other resources were deleted successfully)Re-delete the
DELETE_FAILEDstack after a few hours (Or do it automatically using a cleanup lambda triggered by cron event to clean-up the CloudFormation stacks withDELETE_FAILEDstatus)

If you are able to get in such a situation then yo most likely have freshly deleted a stack that did have lambda edge functions. In that case replicated functions get revealed (you dont see them while the edge function is inplace/being used). You dont need to do anything, just maybe to be patient - the replicated function will disappear after some time.
