GETDEL

Get the value of key and delete the key. This command is similar to [GET]({{< relref "/commands/get" >}}), except for the fact that it also deletes the key on success (if and only if the key's value type is a string).

Examples

{{% redis-cli %}} SET mykey "Hello" GETDEL mykey GET mykey {{% /redis-cli %}}
