AWS - HowTo delete S3 objects easily

 

In this post, let us see the easy option for deleting object from an S3 Bucket.

Pre-requisites:

1. An active AWS account
2. permissions to create/upload objects into an s3 bucket

Steps:

• Login & Navigate to the AWS S3 console
• Find & select the S3 Bucket which has to be deleted completely

• Click on "Empty" and this will clear all objects under the selected bucket

Note: This is rather different from "delete" option that is visible next to "empty" in S3 Console. "delete" is to be used to delete an empty bucket thus losing that bucket from that account were as "empty" is to delete all objects under the selected bucket and yet retain the bucket
