Deleting Object Tags (SDK for C)

If you have any questions during development, post them on the Issues page of GitHub.

Function

This API is used to delete the tags of an object.

Restrictions

Method

void delete_object_tagging(const obs_options *options, const char *key,
            obs_response_handler *handler, void *callback_data);

Request Parameters

Table 1 List of request parameters

Parameter

Type

Mandatory (Yes/No)

Description

options

const obs_options*

Yes

Explanation:

Context of the requested bucket. You can set the AK, SK, endpoint, bucket, timeout interval, and temporary credentials through obs_options.

Restrictions:

None

Value range:

None

Default value:

None

key

char *

Yes

Explanation:

Object name. An object name is a complete path of the object that does not contain the bucket name.

For example, if the address for accessing the object is examplebucket.obs.ap-southeast-1.myhuaweicloud.com/folder/test.txt, the object name is folder/test.txt.

Restrictions:

The name of each object in a bucket must be unique.

Value range:

The value can contain 1 to 1,024 characters.

Default value:

None

handler

obs_response_handler *

Yes

Explanation:

A callback structure where all members are pointers to callback functions, used to set the callback functions that handle response data. You can set a callback function to copy the response data from the server to callback_data (custom callback data).

Restrictions:

None

Value range:

None

Default value:

None

callback_data

void *

No

Explanation:

Custom callback data.

Restrictions:

None

Value range:

None

Default value:

None

Sample Code

This example deletes the object tags.
#include "eSDKOBS.h"
#include <stdio.h>
// The response callback function. The content of properties in the callback can be recorded in callback_data (custom callback data).
obs_status response_properties_callback(const obs_response_properties *properties, void *callback_data);
// The callback function for the completed response. The content of obs_status and obs_error_details in the callback can be recorded in callback_data (custom callback data).
void response_complete_callback(obs_status status, const obs_error_details *error, void *callback_data);
