Deleting Multiple Objects

Description

This API is used to delete multiple objects from a bucket in a single request. It can delete up to 1,000 objects in a single request. This API supports two response modes: Verbose and Quiet. Verbose mode returns the information on the deletion of each object, whereas Quiet mode only returns the information on the objects for which deletion errors were reported.

Method prototype

cos_status_t *cos_delete_objects(const cos_request_options_t *options,
                               const cos_string_t *bucket, 
                               cos_list_t *object_list, 
                               int is_quiet,

Sample 2. Deleting a folder and the objects contained

COS does not have the concept of folder, but you can use slashes (/) as the delimiter to stimulate folders.

In COS, deleting a folder and the objects contained actually means deleting objects that have the same specified prefix. Currently, COS’s C SDK does not provide a standalone API to perform this operation. However, you can still do so with a combination of basic operations (query object list and batch delete objects).
