Deleting Objects or Buckets

Following are the steps to delete a bucket:

STEP 1

Select the bucket which you want to delete.

STEP 2

You can see that the bucket cannot be deleted, because it contains one or more objects. To delete the bucket, we’ll first need to delete all the objects inside the bucket.

Click on the “Close” button to return back to the object list page.

After this, we’ll see that the list is empty. This confirms the successful deletion of all the objects within the bucket. As the bucket is empty now, we can delete the bucket without any error.
