# DeleteBucketMetricsConfiguration
Deletes a metrics configuration for the Amazon CloudWatch request metrics (specified by the metrics configuration ID) from the bucket. Note that this doesn't include the daily storage metrics.
**Note**
**Directory buckets ** - For directory buckets, you must make requests for this API operation to the Regional endpoint. These endpoints support path-style requests in the format `https://s3express-control.region-code.amazonaws.com/bucket-name `. Virtual-hosted-style requests aren't supported. For more information about endpoints in Availability Zones, see [Regional and Zonal endpoints for directory buckets in Availability Zones](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/userguide/endpoint-directory-buckets-AZ.html) in the *Amazon S3 User Guide*. For more information about endpoints in Local Zones, see [Concepts for directory buckets in Local Zones](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/userguide/s3-lzs-for-directory-buckets.html) in the *Amazon S3 User Guide*.
Permissions
To use this operation, you must have permissions to perform the `s3:PutMetricsConfiguration` action. The bucket owner has this permission by default. The bucket owner can grant this permission to others. For more information about permissions, see [Permissions Related to Bucket Subresource Operations](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/userguide/using-with-s3-actions.html#using-with-s3-actions-related-to-bucket-subresources) and [Managing Access Permissions to Your Amazon S3 Resources](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/userguide/s3-access-control.html).
+ **General purpose bucket permissions** - The `s3:PutMetricsConfiguration` permission is required in a policy. For more information about general purpose buckets permissions, see [Using Bucket Policies and User Policies](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/dev/using-iam-policies.html) in the *Amazon S3 User Guide*.
+ **Directory bucket permissions** - To grant access to this API operation, you must have the `s3express:PutMetricsConfiguration` permission in an IAM identity-based policy instead of a bucket policy. Cross-account access to this API operation isn't supported. This operation can only be performed by the AWS account that owns the resource. For more information about directory bucket policies and permissions, see [AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) for S3 Express One Zone](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/userguide/s3-express-security-iam.html) in the *Amazon S3 User Guide*.
HTTP Host header syntax
**Directory buckets ** - The HTTP Host header syntax is `s3express-control.region-code.amazonaws.com`.
For information about CloudWatch request metrics for Amazon S3, see [Monitoring Metrics with Amazon CloudWatch](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/dev/cloudwatch-monitoring.html).

+ [PutBucketMetricsConfiguration](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/API/API_PutBucketMetricsConfiguration.html)
+ [ListBucketMetricsConfigurations](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/API/API_ListBucketMetricsConfigurations.html)
+ [Monitoring Metrics with Amazon CloudWatch](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/dev/cloudwatch-monitoring.html)
**Important**
You must URL encode any signed header values that contain spaces. For example, if your header value is `my file.txt`, containing two spaces after `my`, you must URL encode this value to `my%20%20file.txt`.
## Request Syntax
```
DELETE /?metrics&id=Id HTTP/1.1
Host: Bucket.s3.amazonaws.com
x-amz-expected-bucket-owner: ExpectedBucketOwner
```
## URI Request Parameters
The request uses the following URI parameters.
** [Bucket](#API_DeleteBucketMetricsConfiguration_RequestSyntax) **
The name of the bucket containing the metrics configuration to delete.
**Directory buckets ** - When you use this operation with a directory bucket, you must use path-style requests in the format `https://s3express-control.region-code.amazonaws.com/bucket-name `. Virtual-hosted-style requests aren't supported. Directory bucket names must be unique in the chosen Zone (Availability Zone or Local Zone). Bucket names must also follow the format ` bucket-base-name--zone-id--x-s3` (for example, ` DOC-EXAMPLE-BUCKET--usw2-az1--x-s3`). For information about bucket naming restrictions, see [Directory bucket naming rules](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/userguide/directory-bucket-naming-rules.html) in the *Amazon S3 User Guide*
Required: Yes
** [id](#API_DeleteBucketMetricsConfiguration_RequestSyntax) **
The ID used to identify the metrics configuration. The ID has a 64 character limit and can only contain letters, numbers, periods, dashes, and underscores.
Required: Yes
** [x-amz-expected-bucket-owner](#API_DeleteBucketMetricsConfiguration_RequestSyntax) **
The account ID of the expected bucket owner. If the account ID that you provide does not match the actual owner of the bucket, the request fails with the HTTP status code `403 Forbidden` (access denied).
For directory buckets, this header is not supported in this API operation. If you specify this header, the request fails with the HTTP status code `501 Not Implemented`.
## Request Body
The request does not have a request body.
## Response Syntax
```
HTTP/1.1 204
```
## Response Elements
If the action is successful, the service sends back an HTTP 204 response with an empty HTTP body.
