mc tag remove

Syntax

The mc tag remove command removes all tags from a bucket or object.

The following command removes tags for the mydata bucket on the myminio MinIO deployment:

mc tag remove myminio/mydata

The command has the following syntax:

mc [GLOBALFLAGS] tag remove                \
                 [--rewind "string"]       \
                 [--versions]              \
                 [--version-id "string"]*  \
  • Brackets [] indicate optional parameters.

  • Parameters sharing a line are mutually dependent.

  • Parameters separated using the pipe | operator are mutually exclusive.

Copy the example to a text editor and modify as-needed before running the command in the terminal/shell.

mc tag remove --version-id is mutually exclusive with multiple parameters. See the reference documentation for more information.

Parameters

ALIAS
Required

The alias for a MinIO deployment and the full path to the object on which to remove all tags (e.g. bucket and path to object). For example:

mc tag remove myminio/mybucket/object.txt
--recursive, r
Optional

New in version RELEASE.2023-05-04T18-10-16Z.

Recursively removes all tags from all objects at the specified ALIAS.

--rewind
Optional

Directs mc tag remove to operate only on the object version(s) that existed at specified point-in-time.

  • To rewind to a specific date in the past, specify the date as an ISO8601-formatted timestamp. For example: --rewind "2020.03.24T10:00".

  • To rewind a duration in time, specify the duration as a string in #d#hh#mm#ss format. For example: --rewind "1d2hh3mm4ss".

--rewind requires that the specified ALIAS be an S3-compatible service that supports Bucket Versioning. For MinIO deployments, use mc version to enable or disable bucket versioning.

--versions
Optional

Directs mc tag remove to operate on all object versions that exist in the bucket.

--versions requires that the specified ALIAS be an S3-compatible service that supports Bucket Versioning. For MinIO deployments, use mc version to enable or disable bucket versioning.

Use --versions and --rewind together to remove tags from all object versions which existed at a specific point in time.

--version-id, vid
Optional

Directs mc tag remove to operate only on the specified object version.

--version-id requires that the specified ALIAS be an S3-compatible service that supports Bucket Versioning. For MinIO deployments, use mc version to enable or disable bucket versioning.

Mutually exclusive with the following parameters:

Global Flags

This command supports any of the global flags.

Examples

Remove Tags from a Bucket or Object

Use mc tag remove to remove tags from a bucket or object:

mc tag remove ALIAS/PATH
  • Replace ALIAS with the alias of the MinIO deployment.

  • Replace PATH with the path to the bucket or object on the MinIO deployment.

Behavior

S3 Compatibility

The mc commandline tool is built for compatibility with the AWS S3 API and is tested with MinIO and AWS S3 for expected functionality and behavior.

MinIO provides no guarantees for other S3-compatible services, as their S3 API implementation is unknown and therefore unsupported. While mc commands may work as documented, any such usage is at your own risk.
