Uploading an Object - File-Based (SDK for Java)

Function

This API uploads local files to OBS over the Internet. The file to be uploaded can be of any type.

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

Restrictions

To upload an object, you must be the bucket owner or have the required permission (obs:object:PutObject in IAM or PutObject in a bucket policy). For details, see Introduction to OBS Access Control, IAM Custom Policies, and Configuring an Object Policy.
The mapping between OBS regions and endpoints must comply with what is listed in Regions and Endpoints.
The object size in a single upload ranges from 0 to 5 GB.
To upload files larger than 5 GB, multipart uploads should be used.

Method

obsClient.putObject(PutObjectRequest request)

Request Parameters

request	PutObjectRequest	Yes	Explanation: Request parameters for uploading an object. For details, see Table 2.

**Table 2** PutObjectRequest
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
objectKey	String	Yes	Explanation: Object name. An object is uniquely identified by an object name in a bucket. An object name is a complete path that does not contain the bucket name. For example, if the address for accessing the object is examplebucket.obs.ap-southeast-1.myhuaweicloud.com/folder/test.txt, the object name is folder/test.txt.
