Restoring a Specific Archive Object Version

You can call OBSRestoreObjectRequest to restore an Archive object version by specifying versionID. Sample code is as follows:

static OBSClient *client;
NSString *endPoint = @"your-endpoint";
// Hard-coded or plaintext AK/SK are risky. For security purposes, encrypt your AK/SK and store them in the configuration file or environment variables. In this example, the AK/SK are stored in environment variables for identity authentication. Before running this example, configure environment variables AccessKeyID and SecretAccessKey.
// Obtain an AK/SK pair on the management console. For details, see https://support.huaweicloud.com/intl/en-us/usermanual-ca/ca_01_0003.html.
char* ak_env = getenv("AccessKeyID");
char* sk_env = getenv("SecretAccessKey");
NSString *AK = [NSString stringWithUTF8String:ak_env];
NSString *SK = [NSString stringWithUTF8String:sk_env];
    
// Initialize identity authentication.
OBSStaticCredentialProvider *credentialProvider = [[OBSStaticCredentialProvider alloc] initWithAccessKey:AK secretKey:SK];
    
//Initialize service configuration.
OBSServiceConfiguration *conf = [[OBSServiceConfiguration alloc] initWithURLString:endPoint credentialProvider:credentialProvider];
    
// Initialize an instance of OBSClient.
client = [[OBSClient alloc] initWithConfiguration:conf];
// Restore an Archive object.
OBSRestoreObjectRequest *request = [[OBSRestoreObjectRequest alloc]initWithBucketName:@"bucketname" objectKey:@"objectname" storeDays:[NSNumber numberWithInt:30]];//1 to 30
request.restoreTier = OBSRestoreTierExpedited;
    
// Version ID of a versioning object
request.versionID = @"Version ID of a versioning object";
[client restoreObject:request completionHandler:^(OBSRestoreObjectResponse *response, NSError *error){
    NSLog(@"%@",response);
}];

To prolong the validity period of the Archive data restored, you can repeatedly restore the Archive data, but you will be billed for each restore. After a second restore, the validity period of Standard object copies will be prolonged, and you need to pay for storing these copies during the prolonged period.
