Example: Consider an example where the "Delete Bucket" activity is used to delete an S3 bucket named "MyDataBucket" located in the "us-west-2" region:
Delete Bucket:
Display Name: "Delete MyDataBucket"
Access Key ID: "**************"
Secret Access Key: "**************"
Region: "us-west-2"
Bucket Name: "MyDataBucket"
Result: isBucketDeleted
In this example, the activity attempts to delete the S3 bucket named "MyDataBucket" in the "us-west-2" region, and the result of the operation (success or failure) is stored in the Boolean variable "isBucketDeleted" for further handling in the workflow.
