delete object in S3

else console.log(data); // successful response

I am seeing a strange behavior here, I do receive a success response (else as per the example above) but the file is not getting deleted from S3. Does it take time or am I missing anything?
Please help

I'm having the same issue. Has anyone found a solution to that?

s3.deleteObjects inserts a delete marker, in the next request the file is deleted.

In the "next" request... what do you mean by that? Any next request or do you need to run the same thing again to fully delete???

Yes, you can through API Gateway and passing the parameters in query string
