Deleting an image in a public repository in Amazon ECR public

If you are done using an image, you can delete it from your public repository. You can delete an image using the AWS Management Console, or the AWS CLI.

Note

If you are done with a public repository, you can delete the entire repository and all of the images within it. For more information, see Deleting a public repository policy statement Amazon ECR public.

To delete a public image with the AWS Management Console

1. Open the Amazon ECR console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/ecr/repositories.

2. From the navigation bar, choose the Region that contains the image to delete.

3. In the navigation pane, choose Repositories.

4. On the Repositories page, select the Public tab and then select the repository containing the image to delete.

5. On the Repositories: repository_name page, select the box to the left of the image to delete and choose Delete.

6. In the Delete image(s) dialog box, verify that the selected images should be deleted and choose Delete.

To delete a public image with the AWS CLI

1. List the image tags in your repository.

   aws ecr-public describe-image-tags \
         --repository-name my-repo \
         --region us-east-1

2. (Optional) Delete any unwanted tags for the image by specifying the tag of the image you want to delete.

   Note

   When you delete the last tag for an image, the image is deleted.

   aws ecr-public batch-delete-image \
         --repository-name my-repo \
         --image-ids imageTag=latest \
         --region us-east-1

3. Delete the image by specifying the digest of the image to delete.

   Note

   When you delete an image by referencing its digest, the image and all of its tags are deleted.

   aws ecr-public batch-delete-image \
         --repository-name my-repo \
         --image-ids imageDigest=sha256:4f70ef7a4d29e8c0c302b13e25962d8f7a0bd304c7c2c1a9d6fa3e9de6bf552d
