Configuring a Bucket ACL (SDK for Java)

Function

OBS provides access control over buckets. You can use an access policy to define whether a user can perform certain operations on a specific bucket. OBS access control can be implemented using IAM permissions, bucket policies, and ACLs (including bucket and object ACLs). For more information, see Introduction to OBS Access Control.

A bucket ACL applies permissions to a different account and its IAM users, rather than the current account and its IAM users. It can grant access to both a bucket (including the objects in it) and the bucket ACL. The granted access includes view and edit permissions. You must specify a bucket name when configuring a bucket ACL. For more information, see ACLs.

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

You can configure a bucket ACL by referring to Method.

OBS supports five types of bucket or object permissions. For details, see Table 9.

OBS supports five types of pre-defined ACLs. For details, see Table 3.

Restrictions

Method

  • Method 1: Configure a bucket ACL when creating a bucket.
    obsBucket.setBucketName(exampleBucket);
    // Set the bucket ACL to PRIVATE.
    obsBucket.setAcl(AccessControlList.REST_CANNED_PRIVATE);
    // Create a bucket.
    obsClient.createBucket(obsBucket);
  • Method 2: Use a pre-defined access policy to configure a bucket ACL.
    // Set the bucket ACL to PRIVATE.
    obsClient.setBucketAcl(String exampleBucket, AccessControlList.REST_CANNED_PRIVATE);
  • Method 3: Call ObsClient.setBucketAcl to configure a bucket ACL.
    // Configure the bucket ACL.
    obsClient.setBucketAcl(String bucketName,AccessControlList acl);
