DeleteObject
Removes the null version (if there is one) of an object and inserts a delete marker, which becomes the latest version of the object
If there isn't a null version, Petabox does not remove any objects but will still respond that the command was successful.
To remove a specific version, you must use the version Id subresource. Using this subresource permanently deletes the version. If the object deleted is a delete marker, Petabox sets the response header, x-amz-delete-marker, to true.
You can delete objects by explicitly calling DELETE Object or configure its lifecycle (PutBucketLifecycle) to enable Petabox to remove them for you. If you want to block users or accounts from removing or deleting objects from your bucket, you must deny them the s3:DeleteObject, s3:DeleteObjectVersion, and s3:PutLifeCycleConfiguration actions.
