How can I delete security rules from CLI?

[shayandes]

I did a search but the commands suggested below do not work on the cli. What Am I doing wrong? I'm trying to delete 400+ rules, I have the rules in an excel workbook. I just want to prepare the command on the excel and copy and paste it to delete the rules. Its a PA5020 running version 10.1.9-h1

configure

delete rulebase security rules RuleNameHere

show running rule-use rule-base security type unused vsys vsys1 and then use the delete

I tried this article as well, but there isnt edit rulebase option on CLI.
