you can't do it dynamically, you can do it using the config

cameras:
  on_cam:
    enabled: true
  off_cam:
    enabled: false

and what is the point of removing recordings if the cameras are no more here ? if one of the cams becomes wrecked, all recordigns will be deleted ?

the camera was removed from the config, it has no retention period configured anymore so keeping it around would just be dead space for a camera that can not be accessed from the webUI. A camera becoming "wrecked" is irrelevant because it would still be in the config. This only happens when a user changes their config to not include a camera anymore which means that camera does not exist
