1) IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO DELETE A BUCKET CONTAINING OBJECTS.
If you wish to delete a bucket, you must first empty it completely.

Objects must be deleted using a third-party application, such as Cyberduck or AWS CLI. This will depend on whether the bucket has been locked and whether a retention time has been set. (see this article)
2) DELETING AN EMPTY BUCKET
Once your bucket no longer contains an object, you can delete it using the 3 dots or the bucket modification page.
Deletion is irreversible and cannot be undone.
Bucket names are unique at Leviia: if you delete the bucket, another Leviia user will be able to use this name.
You will need to enter your bucket name to validate the deletion.
