Delete a secondary index

Prerequisites

• An OTSClient instance is initialized. For more information, see Initialize a Tablestore client.

• A secondary index is created. For more information, see Create a secondary index.

Precautions

A deleted secondary index cannot be recovered. To use the index again, create a new secondary index.

Parameters

        MainTableName: tableName,
        IndexName:     indexName,
    }
    resp, err := client.DeleteIndex(deleteIndex)
    if err != nil {
        fmt.Println("Failed to delete the secondary index: ", err)
    } else {
        fmt.Println("Successfully deleted the secondary index: ", resp)
    }
}
