# Delete Object

> **Note:** This SDK is currently in deprecation. Migrate to [JavaScript SDK](https://docs.catalyst.zoho.com/en/sdk/javascript/v1/cloudscale/stratus/delete-object/) now.

Using this SDK method, you can delete a particular object by passing the complete name of the object to the `deleteObject()` method. The Bucket reference used in the below code snippet is the [component instance](https://docs.catalyst.zoho.com/en/sdk/web/v4/cloud-scale/stratus/initialize-stratus-instance/#initialize-bucket-instance).

**Parameters Used**

<table class="content-table">
	<thead>
		<tr>
			<th class="w20p">Parameter Name</th>
			<th class="w20p">Data Type</th>
      <th class="w60p">Definition</th>
		</tr>
	</thead>
	<tbody>
		<tr>
			<td>`key`</td>
			<td>**String**</td>
			<td>A **Mandatory** parameter. Will hold the complete name of the object along with it's [path](https://docs.catalyst.zoho.com/en/cloud-scale/help/stratus/objects/introduction/#path).</td>
		</tr>
		<tr>
			<td>`options`</td>
			<td>**JSON Object**</td>
			<td>
				<ul>
					<li>`versionId`: An optional **String** parameter. If [Versioning](https://docs.catalyst.zoho.com/en/cloud-scale/help/stratus/stratus-config/general-settings/#versioning) is enabled for your bucket then, this param will help you refer to a particular version using its unique Version ID.
					</li>
					<li>`ttl`: An optional **String | Number** parameter. You can set **Time-to-Live** (TTL) in seconds for an object. The value should be greater than or equal to **60 seconds**.
					</li>
				</ul>
			</td>

const options = {
	versionId: "01hthq82gwxtfyz6d9j8eg6k2f", // Delete an object with the given versionId
	ttl: 100 // Time to live in seconds
};
const deleteObject = await bucket.deleteObject("key", options);
```

**Example Response**

}
```
