Hi, can someone tell me how do I delete photos from a device to save space but keep the photo In iCloud? Is it possible or will it dissapear from iCloud too? Thanks

iCloud Photo Library is a syncing service, not off device storage.

What you want is not possible using iCloud Photo Library. You can optimize photos, but they will be still present on your device in a smaller size.
