REQUEST: batch processing; deleting directories recursively

Hello,

Can you provide an operation to delete a directory object and all the objects under it with one HTTP request? Otherwise it becomes a pretty time-consuming and inefficient way to delete multiple objects.

On the same note, is there any way of batch-processing operations on objects. i.e., instead of sending a single request on a single object, can we send the same operation for multiple objects or multiple operations on a single object? Again, this is very useful when processing thousands of objects.

thanks,

Navneeth

    Navneeth,

    At this time there are no "recursive" type commands to allow you to delete a directory and all the objects within it. Your application will need to list the objects and delete them individually. There are also no "batch" processing capabilities at this time, although I would like to better understand use cases where these would be desirable features.

    Regards,

    Dave
