Request Parameters

Table 1 List of request parameters

Parameter

Type

Mandatory (Yes/No)

Description

bucketName

String

Yes

Explanation:

Bucket name.

Restrictions:

  • A bucket name must be unique across all accounts and regions.
  • A bucket name:
    • Must be 3 to 63 characters long and start with a digit or letter. Lowercase letters, digits, hyphens (-), and periods (.) are allowed.
    • Cannot be formatted as an IP address.
    • Cannot start or end with a hyphen (-) or period (.).
    • Cannot contain two consecutive periods (..), for example, my..bucket.
    • Cannot contain periods (.) and hyphens (-) adjacent to each other, for example, my-.bucket or my.-bucket.
  • If you repeatedly create buckets of the same name in the same region, no error will be reported and the bucket attributes comply with those set in the first creation request.

Default value:

None

Responses

Table 2 BucketLocationResponse

Parameter

Type

Description

statusCode

int

Explanation:

HTTP status code.

Value range:

A status code is a group of digits that can be 2xx (indicating successes) or 4xx or 5xx (indicating errors). It indicates the status of a response.

For more information, see Status Code.

Default value:

None

responseHeaders

Map<String, Object>

Explanation:

Response header list, composed of tuples. In a tuple, the String key indicates the name of the header, and the Object value indicates the value of the header.

Default value:

None

location

String

Explanation:

Region where a bucket is located.

Restrictions:

If the endpoint used is obs.myhuaweicloud.com, this parameter is not required. If any other endpoints are used, this parameter is required.

Value range:

To learn about valid regions and endpoints, see Regions and Endpoints. An endpoint is the request address for calling an API. Endpoints vary depending on services and regions. To obtain the regions and endpoints, contact the enterprise administrator.

Default value:

If obs.myhuaweicloud.com is used as the endpoint and no region is specified, cn-north-1 (the CN North-Beijing1 region) is used by default.
