I have many topics and queues named in the same pattern. Now I need to delete them all in bulk using some pattern with a wildcard. The AWS CLI only allows deleting one by one. Same in the AWS Console - the list of queues and topics have radio boxes in their rows allowing to delete one by one only. How to delete multiple items at once by a pattern? What script can I use for that?
Using the CLI in your shell or CloudShell you can do something like:
topics=$(aws sns list-topics --query 'Topics[*]' --output text | grep <YOUR_PATTERN>)
for topic in $topics
do
echo "Deleting topic" $topic
aws sns delete-topic --topic-arn $topic
done
Do the same with the CLI commands for sqs.
