Need help deleting old glacier vaults that aren't empty and I have no api keys

Question

Hi
I'm hoping there's a way for me to delete my old glacier vaults that are unused.
I seem to stupidly enough have saved an incorrect key so I wouldn't be able to restore the content even if I wanted to. Is there any way to create new keys for an old vault? Or better yet, any way to delete a vault without the access key I used to create it?

Answer

Without API keys or access credentials it is not possible to directly delete Glacier vaults or perform any actions on them. Glacier is designed to provide long-term storage for data, and the process of retrieving and deleting data requires specific authentication and authorization.

I would recommend opening a AWS support case if possible and seeing if there is anything that can be done to forcefully delete the vault without the keys available.
