deleteBucketMetadataTableConfiguration
We recommend that you delete your S3 Metadata configurations by using the V2 DeleteBucketMetadataTableConfiguration API operation. We no longer recommend using the V1 DeleteBucketMetadataTableConfiguration API operation.
If you created your S3 Metadata configuration before July 15, 2025, we recommend that you delete and re-create your configuration by using CreateBucketMetadataConfiguration so that you can expire journal table records and create a live inventory table.
Deletes a V1 S3 Metadata configuration from a general purpose bucket. For more information, see Accelerating data discovery with S3 Metadata in the Amazon S3 User Guide.
You can use the V2 DeleteBucketMetadataConfiguration API operation with V1 or V2 metadata table configurations. However, if you try to use the V1 DeleteBucketMetadataTableConfiguration API operation with V2 configurations, you will receive an HTTP 405 Method Not Allowed error.
Make sure that you update your processes to use the new V2 API operations (CreateBucketMetadataConfiguration, GetBucketMetadataConfiguration, and DeleteBucketMetadataConfiguration) instead of the V1 API operations.
Permissions
To use this operation, you must have the s3:DeleteBucketMetadataTableConfiguration permission. For more information, see Setting up permissions for configuring metadata tables in the Amazon S3 User Guide.
