Can't delete s3 Bucket with locking enabled

Question

I created a Terraform-managed s3 bucket with DynamoDB locking enabled and while trying to delete it as a root or admin user I get an error:

Furthermore, I do not have access to Terraform anymore, so I have to use AWS Console or CLI.

Answer

No sure what is it you are looking for, If you are using AWS console and have permission to bypass object lock "s3:BypassGovernanceRetention" it should work automatically. if you are looking for cli option you can check the options [here](https://awscli.amazonaws.com/v2/documentation/api/latest/reference/s3api/delete-objects.html)

and example command to delete all the object version with locks overwrite should look like this:

aws s3api delete-objects --bucket BUCKET_NAME --bypass-governance-retention --delete "$(aws s3api list-object-versions --bucket BUCKET_NAME --output=json --query='{Objects: Versions[].{Key:Key,VersionId:VersionId}}')"
