Deleting a vector bucket is irreversible. All data in the bucket is permanently removed and cannot be recovered.
Use the Python SDK V2 to delete a vector bucket by calling delete_vector_bucket.
Prerequisites
Before you begin, make sure you have:
An existing vector bucket to delete
The
oss:DeleteVectorBucketpermission on your Alibaba Cloud account, or granted to a Resource Access Management (RAM) user or RAM role via a RAM policy or bucket policy
Permissions
By default, your Alibaba Cloud account has full permissions. RAM users and RAM roles have no permissions by default — an administrator must explicitly grant the oss:DeleteVectorBucket action via a RAM policy or bucket policy.
| API | Action | Description |
|---|---|---|
| DeleteVectorBucket | oss:DeleteVectorBucket | Deletes a vector bucket |
Method definition
delete_vector_bucket(request: DeleteVectorBucketRequest, **kwargs) → DeleteVectorBucketResultRequest parameters
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
request | DeleteVectorBucketRequest | The request object. Set the bucket field to the name of the vector bucket to delete. See DeleteVectorBucketRequest for the full reference. |
Return values
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
DeleteVectorBucketResult | The result object, containing status_code and request_id. See DeleteVectorBucketResult for the full reference. |
For the complete method definition, see delete_vector_bucket.
Examples
The following example loads credentials from environment variables, initializes the vector client, and deletes the specified vector bucket. The core deletion call is:
result = vector_client.delete_vector_bucket(oss_vectors.models.DeleteVectorBucketRequest(
bucket=args.bucket,
))Full runnable script:
import argparse
import alibabacloud_oss_v2 as oss
import alibabacloud_oss_v2.vectors as oss_vectors
parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(description="vector delete bucket sample")
parser.add_argument('--region', help='The region in which the bucket is located.', required=True)
parser.add_argument('--bucket', help='The name of the bucket.', required=True)
parser.add_argument('--endpoint', help='The domain names that other services can use to access OSS')
parser.add_argument('--account_id', help='The account ID.', required=True)
def main():
args = parser.parse_args()
# Load credentials from environment variables
credentials_provider = oss.credentials.EnvironmentVariableCredentialsProvider()
# Initialize the SDK with default configuration
cfg = oss.config.load_default()
cfg.credentials_provider = credentials_provider
cfg.region = args.region
cfg.account_id = args.account_id
if args.endpoint is not None:
cfg.endpoint = args.endpoint
vector_client = oss_vectors.Client(cfg)
result = vector_client.delete_vector_bucket(oss_vectors.models.DeleteVectorBucketRequest(
bucket=args.bucket,
))
print(f'status code: {result.status_code},'
f' request id: {result.request_id},'
)
