Unable to delete Snapshot using boto3 using python3 - python-3.x

Question

I using boto3 on the python3 for delete the snapshop, Getting below error while trying to remove it (This syntax was work in the python2+boto only):
Tracebak (most recent call last):
File "./snapshotcleanup.py"m line 158, in <module>
s.delete()
AttributeError: 'dict' object has no attribute 'delete'
Code :
connection = myinternalclient (User, pass)
// Custom function for connection, you may consider ec2 = boto3.client('ec2')
res = connection.describe_snapshots(OwnersIds=[XX], Filters=[{'Name' : 'tag:Name', 'Value' : ["nonimp*"]'}])
for s in res['Snapshots']:
for tag in s['Tags']:
if 'nonprod' in tag.value():
s.delete()
print("[Deleted Snapshot]: %s" % s['SnapshotId'])
Is this syntax not in the boto3 ?

Answer 1

To delete the snapshot, you can use delete_snapshot method.
For example:
ec2 = boto3.client('ec2')
for s in res['Snapshots']:
for tag in s['Tags']:
if tag['Value'] == 'nonprod':
ec2.delete_snapshot(SnapshotId=s['SnapshotId'])
print("[Deleted Snapshot]: %s" % s['SnapshotId'])
Please double check the code as mistakes are possible, as one can delete wrong snapshots by accident.
The above assumes that the tags have the form (Key is not checked in the code above):
{
'Key': 'env',
'Value': 'nonprod'
}
