Overview

This node operation removes a specified bucket from a MinIO storage service. It is useful in scenarios where you need to delete storage buckets that are no longer needed, such as cleaning up unused resources or managing storage lifecycle. For example, you might use this operation to programmatically delete a bucket after archiving its contents elsewhere.

Use Case Examples

  1. Deleting a bucket named 'archive-2023' after migrating its data.
  2. Removing a test bucket created during development to keep the storage environment clean.

Properties

Name Meaning
Bucket Name Specifies the name of the bucket to be removed. It supports selecting from a list of existing buckets or entering the bucket name directly as an ID.

Output

JSON

  • success - Indicates whether the bucket removal operation was successful (true or false).
  • bucketName - The name of the bucket that was requested to be removed.

Dependencies

  • Requires connection to a MinIO storage service with appropriate credentials to authenticate and authorize bucket removal operations.

Troubleshooting

  • Ensure the bucket name is correct and exists; attempting to remove a non-existent bucket will result in an error.
  • Verify that the credentials used have sufficient permissions to delete buckets in the MinIO service.
  • Check network connectivity to the MinIO server to avoid timeout or connection errors.
