FileType[$CloudSymbolBase]

Create a new (RefLink[CloudSymbol, paclet:ref/CloudSymbol]) and set its value to 42:

CloudSymbol["abc"]=42

Check that the (RefLink[CloudSymbol, paclet:ref/CloudSymbol]) has the correct value:

CloudSymbol["abc"]

Alternatively, access the cloud symbol using (RefLink[CloudGet, paclet:ref/CloudGet]) and (RefLink[$CloudSymbolBase, paclet:ref/$CloudSymbolBase]):

CloudGet[FileNameJoin[{$CloudSymbolBase,"abc"}]]

The cloud symbol is a file in the (RefLink[$CloudSymbolBase, paclet:ref/$CloudSymbolBase]) directory:

FileType[FileNameJoin[{$CloudSymbolBase,"abc"}]]

Delete the cloud symbol using (RefLink[DeleteFile, paclet:ref/DeleteFile]) and (RefLink[$CloudSymbolBase, paclet:ref/$CloudSymbolBase]):

DeleteFile[FileNameJoin[{$CloudSymbolBase,"abc"}]]

Check that the cloud symbol no longer has a defined value:

CloudSymbol["abc"]
