Obtaining Static Website Hosting for a Bucket (SDK for Python)

Function

You can host static website resources such as HTML web pages, flash files, as well as audio and video files in an OBS bucket, so that you can provide these hosted resources using the bucket's website endpoint to end users. Typical use cases include:

  • Redirecting all requests to another website
  • Redirecting specific requests

This API returns the static website hosting configuration of the bucket.
