OBS Authorization

If you configure a Huawei Cloud OBS private bucket as the origin server, enable OBS authorization so that CDN can pull content from your private bucket.

Constraints

By default, an account administrator has all permissions. You do not need to add permissions when configuring an agency as an account administrator. IAM users can enable OBS authorization only when they have the following permissions:

IAM permissions

  • iam:agencies:listAgencies
  • iam:agencies:createAgency
  • iam:permissions:grantRoleToAgencyOnProject

CDN permissions

  • cdn:configuration:modifyChargeMode
  • CDN ReadOnlyAccess

Procedure

  1. Log in to Huawei Cloud console. Choose Service List > Content Delivery & Edge Computing > Content Delivery Network.

    The CDN console is displayed.

  2. In the navigation pane, choose Domains.
  3. In the upper right corner of the Domains page, click Enable OBS Authorization.

  1. Click Authorize. The system creates an agency named CDNAccessPrivateOBS for you on the IAM console. CDN now has the read-only permission to access your private OBS buckets.
    • Do not delete the CDNAccessPrivateOBS agency. Otherwise, CDN cannot pull resources from OBS private buckets.

If files in your OBS bucket are encrypted using KMS, assign the kms:cmk:get and kms:dek:crypto policies to the CDNAccessPrivateOBS agency so that CDN can read and accelerate delivery of the encrypted files.

  1. (Optional) Assign the kms:cmk:get and kms:dek:crypto policies to the CDNAccessPrivateOBS agency.
