Obtaining the ACL of an Object Version (SDK for Java)

Function

OBS allows the control of access permissions for objects. By default, only object creators have the read and write permissions on the object. You can call an ACL API to modify or obtain the ACL of an existing object.

This API returns the ACL for a specific object version in a bucket.

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

Restrictions

  • The mapping between OBS regions and endpoints must comply with what is listed in Regions and Endpoints.
  • To call this API, you must have the read permission on the ACL of the object.

Method

obsClient.getObjectAcl(GetObjectAclRequest request)

Request Parameters

Table 1 List of request parameters

Parameter

Type

Mandatory (Yes/No)

Description

request

GetObjectAclRequest

Yes

Explanation:

Request parameters for obtaining the ACL of the object. For details, see Table 2.

Table 2 GetObjectAclRequest parameters

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.

ALL_USERS

All users.

AUTHENTICATED_USERS

Authorized users. This constant is deprecated.

LOG_DELIVERY

Log delivery group. This constant is deprecated.

Table 9 Permission

Constant

Default Value

Description

PERMISSION_READ

READ

Read permission.

A grantee with this permission for a bucket can obtain the list of objects, multipart uploads, bucket metadata, and object versions in the bucket.

A grantee with this permission for an object can obtain the object content and metadata.

PERMISSION_WRITE

WRITE

Write permission.

A grantee with this permission for a bucket can upload, overwrite, and delete any object or part in the bucket.

This permission is not available for objects.

PERMISSION_READ_ACP

READ_ACP

Permission to read an ACL.

A grantee with this permission can obtain the ACL of a bucket or object.

A bucket or object owner has this permission for their bucket or object by default.

PERMISSION_WRITE_ACP

WRITE_ACP

Permission to modify an ACL.

A grantee with this permission can update the ACL of a bucket or object.

A bucket or object owner has this permission for their bucket or object by default.

This permission allows the grantee to change the access control policies, meaning the grantee has full control over a bucket or object.

PERMISSION_FULL_CONTROL

FULL_CONTROL

Full control access, including read and write permissions for a bucket and its ACL, or for an object and its ACL.

A grantee with this permission for a bucket has READ, WRITE, READ_ACP, and WRITE_ACP permissions for the bucket.

A grantee with this permission for an object has READ, READ_ACP, and WRITE_ACP permissions for the object.

Code Examples

This example returns the ACL information of object version objectname in bucket examplebucket.
