I want to delete multiple objects from S3 with AWS.jl. Looping over S3.delete_object() works fine, but is not that fast.

using AWS
@service S3

bucket = "my_bucket"
keys = ["tmp/file1", "tmp/file2"]
for key in keys 
     S3.delete_object(bucket, key)
end

That's why I want to use S3.delete_objects() without a loop (as long as I have less than 1000 files to delete). But I don't know how to specify the delete parameter.

I tried that:

to_delete = Dict("Objects" => [Dict("Key" => "tmp/file1"), Dict("Key" => "tmp/file2")])
S3.delete_objects(bucket, to_delete)

But only receive an HTTP/1.1 403 Forbidden error. I'm pretty sure the credentials are fine, as it is working in R and Python.

Thans for help

    The README Limitations section says the high level S3.DeleteObjects does not work, and the low level s3 must be used. Maybe try xml with multiple <Object> elements. Commented Jun 5 at 13:27
  • Yes you are right. XML is working with multiple elements. Commented Jun 16 at 8:38
