Configuring Logging for a Bucket (SDK for Java)

Function

This API enables logging for a bucket (source) and configures another bucket (target) to store the log files. When a bucket is created, logging is not enabled by default. You can call this API to enable logging for the bucket. With logging enabled, a log message is generated for each operation on the bucket. Multiple log messages are packed into a file. The target bucket for storing log files must be specified when logging is enabled. It can be the bucket logging is enabled for, or any other bucket you have access to. If you specify another bucket for storing logs, the bucket must be in the same region as the logged bucket. You can also specify access permissions and name prefixes for log files.

If you have any questions during development, post them on the Issues page of GitHub.

Restrictions

  • The source and target buckets must be in the same region.
  • A bucket in the Infrequent Access or Archive storage class cannot be used as a target bucket.
  • OBS creates log files and uploads them to the bucket. Before enabling logging for a bucket, you need to create an IAM agency to delegate OBS to upload log files to the specified bucket. For details about how to create an agency, see Cloud Service Delegation.
  • To configure logging for a bucket, you must be the bucket owner or have the required permission (obs:bucket:PutBucketLogging in IAM or PutBucketLogging in a bucket policy). For details, see Introduction to OBS Access Control, IAM Custom Policies, and Creating a Custom Bucket Policy.
  • The mapping between OBS regions and endpoints must comply with what is listed in Regions and Endpoints.
