Deleting an Object from a Bucket

Delete an object from a bucket.

Prerequisites

  • You must have the permission to delete an object from a bucket.

About this task

You can delete versioned and unversioned objects from a bucket.

When you delete a versioned object, the object is merely marked for deletion and not actually deleted from the bucket.

When you delete an unversioned object, the object is permanently removed from the bucket.

Follow the steps given below to delete objects from a bucket.

Procedure

  1. Log on to the Data Fabric UI.
  2. Click the Table View icon on the Resources card. In the tabular list of fabrics, click the down arrow for the fabric that contains the bucket from which you wish to delete objects (files).
  3. Click the bucket name seen under Resource Name.
  4. Click the ellipsis seen under Actions for the object row to delete on Objects tab.
  5. Click the Delete option.
  6. Click Delete on the message box that appears.

Results

If the object is unversioned, the object is permanently removed from the bucket. If the object is versioned, it is marked for deletion.

    NOTE
    You might not be able to delete an object from GCP by using the minio client (mc). You would need to use the AWS CLI to do so. This is a known minio client issue. For more information about the issue, see https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/162653700.
