AWS S3: Lifecycle rules for permanently deleting delete markers - amazon-web-services

I currently have versioning set up and thus a delete results to a delete marker and not to a permanent delete, which is what I like.
Is there a lifecycle rule that I can add so that after 30 days since the delete markers were created, they are permanently deleted?
I only want to do this for delete markers, not for expiring anything else.

Straight from the documentation:
<LifecycleConfiguration>
<Rule>
...
<NoncurrentVersionExpiration>
<NoncurrentDays>30</NoncurrentDays>
</NoncurrentVersionExpiration>
</Rule>
</LifecycleConfiguration>
Important thing to note is:
A delete marker with zero noncurrent versions is referred to as an
expired object delete marker.

storage object in google bucket is not marked as deleted. once lifecycle has been set

Im trying to work with lifecycle settings in google bucket
my folder name : 2022-08-21T08:38:30_93731. so you can see the date is from yesterday
my rule in the bucket is :
{"rule": [{"action": {"type": "Delete"}, "condition": {"age": 1}}]}
but the folder the objects there is still available
how can i know if my lifecycle is working ?
As per this sample example your json code is correct but when coming to delete there are few exceptions. Kindly check if this might be the reason not working.
The Delete action deletes an object when the object meets all conditions specified in the lifecycle rule.
Exception:
In buckets with Object Versioning enabled, deleting the live version of an object causes it to become a noncurrent version, while deleting a noncurrent version deletes that version permanently. See the configuration for deleting objects for an example of using the Delete action along with Object Versioning.
The Delete action does not take effect on an object while the object has an object hold placed on it or a retention policy that it has not yet fulfilled. As long as the conditions in the Delete action remain satisfied for the object, the Delete action occurs after any object hold is removed and any retention policy is fulfilled.
Apart from the above, you need to have grant storage.buckets.delete
IAM Permissions on the cloud storage bucket to delete.

Completely delete the object in Amazon S3 after a certain period of time after the delete marker is assigned to it

I have versioning enabled the S3 bucket.
I want to completely delete an object after a certain period of time after the object has been given a delete marker.
Is it possible to do this using lifecycle rules?
You can probably achieve this by using two S3 Lifecycle rules:
Permanently delete previous versions of objects, for which you can specify "Number of days after objects become previous versions". I presume that deleting an object, which places a Delete Marker on the object, effectively makes the 'current' version (prior to Deletion) become a 'previous' version.
Delete expired delete markers or incomplete multipart uploads, which should then deleting the 'solo' Delete Marker.
I haven't tried that combination, so I recommend some testing.

Delete all version of S3 object using lifecycle rule

I have a S3 bucket with multiple folders with versioning enabled.
Out of these multiple folders I want to complete delete one folder as it has multiple delete marker.
I am using Lifecycle rule to delete the objects but not sure if it will work for specific folder.
In Lifecycle Rule, If I specify the folder_name/ as a prefix and expiration rule as 1 day after creation for all and current versions.
Will it delete all the objects and its versions ?
Can someone please confirm ?
The other folders are quite critical so can't mess with the rule to test.
I can confirm that you can delete at folder level instead of entire bucket. We have a rule that does the exact same thing (although 7 days instead of 1). I will echo John's point that after initial setup, it will take time to do the deletion. You should see progress STARTING within 1 hour, but actual completion may take a while.

Deleting object from AWS bucket

As the official document says when we enable versioning on bucket, deleted objects can be restored as only delete marker will be created.
When objects will be actually deleted then?
As if deleting them only created delete marker, they will still consume place in bucket, how many days they will be present in bucket after deleting?
If Versioning is enabled on a bucket, objects will not be deleted.
Deleting the object will merely add a delete marker
All versions of an object will be charged for storage space
However, you can delete a specific version of the object
If all versions of a document and the delete marker are deleted, then the object is fully deleted
If versioning is not enabled, then deleting an object will immediately delete it.
You can create lifecycle rules that can delete objects, or object versions, after a defined period of time.
It will be there forever, unless you manually delete all the versions and the deletion marker. You can manually delete it by going tot he bucket, on versions, click "Show", then all the versions and deletion marker will be shown. You can delete them afterwards.

AWS Lambda: unable to delete arn because it is a replicated function

I'm trying to delete an AWS Lambda function through the GUI, but am getting a response: There was an error deleting your function: Lambda was unable to delete arn:aws:lambda:us-east-1:624929674184:function:lambda-auth:1 because it is a replicated function.
How can one delete replicated Lambda functions?
I have figured out the solution to delete Lambda#edge replica.
Firstly, Login to CloudFront Console and go to your Distribution.
Under the Behaviors Tab - tick the listed Behavior and edit
Scroll down to Lambda Function Associations and remove any Association by clicking the X.
Press yes,edit to save the changes.
--- Now that you have removed the Associations it's time to delete the Lambda#edge replicas
Go to Lambda Console and open your lambda( you wish to delete).
On the top menus - Qualifiers -> Versions-> choose the listed drop-down version
It will open that #edgeLambda Version
On the top menus - Actions -> Delete version
This way , deleting all the versions - you are left with $LATEST
Deleting that also - you are finally able to delete the Lambda#edge Function
Note!> Please remember to delete any IAM Roles and Permissions associated with Lambda#edge Functions.
I hope this will work :)
Please refer the link Delete Lambda#Edge Functions and Replicas, you will find it much useful.
Replicated functions are something Lambda#Edge uses, so I assume that's the case here even though it's not stated. You should review this document on how to delete these. You can't manually delete them at this time:
You can delete a Lambda#Edge function only when the replicas of the
function have been deleted by CloudFront. Replicas of a Lambda
function are automatically deleted in the following situations:
After you have removed the last association for the function from all
of your CloudFront distributions. If more than one distribution uses a
function, the replicas are removed only after the function is
disassociated from the last one.
After you delete the last distribution that a function was associated
with.
Replicas are typically deleted within a few hours.
Note:
Replicas cannot be manually deleted at this time. This helps prevent a situation where a replica is removed that you're still using, which would result in an error.
BHEERAJ's answer is good, but in my exact case I waited like 6 hours and nothing changed and the error was still ocurring, but then I also removed related S3 buckets (and to remove the bucket, I had to remove items inside it first):
https://s3.console.aws.amazon.com/s3
Then in about half a hour I tried to remove those Lambda functions, and finally it actually deleted.
