ObjectVersion / Action / delete

delete#

S3.ObjectVersion.delete(**kwargs)#

Removes an object from a bucket. The behavior depends on the bucket’s versioning state. For more information, see Best practices to consider before deleting an object.

To remove a specific version, you must use the versionId query parameter. Using this query parameter permanently deletes the version. If the object deleted is a delete marker, Amazon S3 sets the response header x-amz-delete-marker to true. If the object you want to delete is in a bucket where the bucket versioning configuration is MFA delete enabled, you must include the x-amz-mfa request header in the DELETE versionId request. Requests that include x-amz-mfa must use HTTPS. For more information about MFA delete and to see example requests, see Using MFA delete and Sample request in the Amazon S3 User Guide.

Note

  • S3 Versioning isn’t enabled and supported for directory buckets. For this API operation, only the null value of the version ID is supported by directory buckets. You can only specify null to the versionId query parameter in the request.

  • For directory buckets, you must make requests for this API operation to the Zonal endpoint. These endpoints support virtual-hosted-style requests in the format ``https://bucket_name.s3express-az_id.region.amazonaws.com/key-name ``. Path-style requests are not supported. For more information, see Regional and Zonal endpoints in the Amazon S3 User Guide.

  • MFA delete is not supported by directory buckets.

Permissions

  • General purpose bucket permissions - The following permissions are required in your policies when your DeleteObjects request includes specific headers.

    • s3:DeleteObject - To delete an object from a bucket, you must always have the s3:DeleteObject permission.

    Note

    You can also use PutBucketLifecycle to delete objects in Amazon S3.

    • s3:DeleteObjectVersion - To delete a specific version of an object from a versioning-enabled bucket, you must have the s3:DeleteObjectVersion permission.

    • If you want to block users or accounts from removing or deleting objects from your bucket, you must deny them the s3:DeleteObject, s3:DeleteObjectVersion, and s3:PutLifeCycleConfiguration permissions.

  • Directory buckets permissions - To grant access to this API operation on a directory bucket, we recommend that you use the CreateSession API operation for session-based authorization.

Request Syntax

response = object_version.delete(
    MFA='string',
    RequestPayer='requester',
    BypassGovernanceRetention=True|False,
    ExpectedBucketOwner='string'
)
Parameters:

  • MFA (string) –

    The concatenation of the authentication device’s serial number, a space, and the value that is displayed on your authentication device. Required to permanently delete a versioned object if versioning is configured with MFA delete enabled.

    Note

    This functionality is not supported for directory buckets.

  • RequestPayer (string) –

    Confirms that the requester knows that they will be charged for the request. Bucket owners need not specify this parameter in their requests. If either the source or destination S3 bucket has Requester Pays enabled, the requester will pay for corresponding charges to copy the object. For information about downloading objects from Requester Pays buckets, see Downloading Objects in Requester Pays Buckets in the Amazon S3 User Guide.

    Note

    This functionality is not supported for directory buckets.

  • BypassGovernanceRetention (boolean) –

    Indicates whether S3 Object Lock should bypass Governance-mode restrictions to process this operation. To use this header, you must have the s3:BypassGovernanceRetention permission.

    Note

    This functionality is not supported for directory buckets.

  • ExpectedBucketOwner (string) – The account ID of the expected bucket owner. If the account ID that you provide does not match the actual owner of the bucket, the request fails with the HTTP status code 403 Forbidden (access denied).

Return type:

dict

Returns:

}

Response Structure

  • (dict) –

    • DeleteMarker (boolean) –

      Indicates whether the specified object version that was permanently deleted was (true) or was not (false) a delete marker before deletion. In a simple DELETE, this header indicates whether (true) or not (false) the current version of the object is a delete marker.

      Note

      This functionality is not supported for directory buckets.

    • VersionId (string) –

      Returns the version ID of the delete marker created as a result of the DELETE operation.

      Note

      This functionality is not supported for directory buckets.

    • RequestCharged (string) –

      If present, indicates that the requester was successfully charged for the request.

      Note

      This functionality is not supported for directory buckets.
