Configuring WORM Retention for an Object
Functions
This operation configures or updates the retention period for objects uploaded to a bucket with WORM enabled.
- When you upload an object, if you do not configure a protection period or apply the default bucket-level protection rule to the object, you can perform this operation to configure a protection period for the object.
- When you upload an object, if you configure a protection period or apply the default bucket-level protection rule to the object, you can perform this operation to prolong the protection period for the object.
- The protection period of an object can only be modified, but not deleted.
To configure or update the protection period of an object, you must have the PutObjectRetention permission.
Versioning
OBS automatically enables versioning when you enable WORM for a bucket. In such case, the object you uploaded to the bucket will be assigned a version ID. An object-level WORM policy is applied to the current object version by default, but you can specify a version ID to make the policy applied to a specific object version. The WORM configuration does not apply to a delete marker with a unique version ID.
Multipart Upload
Before a multipart upload is complete, the default bucket-level WORM policy is not automatically applied to the object parts uploaded. Besides, you cannot configure an object-level WORM policy using a header when you upload a part or assemble the object parts, or for a part that is already uploaded to the bucket. You can call this API to configure a WORM retention policy for the new object after the object parts are assembled.
