Remove files

Delete stored data from the storage bucket. To remove a file, you need to provide the fully specified path.

Files can only be deleted for the current user. Deletion capabilities do not extend to files associated with other users.

import { remove } from 'aws-amplify/storage';
  await remove({ 
    path: 'public/album/2024/1.jpg',
    // Alternatively, path: ({identityId}) => `protected/${identityId}/album/2024/1.jpg`
} catch (error) {
  console.log('Error ', error);

import { remove } from 'aws-amplify/storage';
  await remove({ 
    key: 'album/2024/1.jpg', 
    options: { 
      accessLevel: 'guest' // defaults to `guest` but can be 'private' | 'protected' | 'guest'
} catch (error) {
  console.log('Error ', error);
