Obtaining Storage Information of a Bucket

Functions

This operation queries the number of bucket objects and the space occupied by the objects. The size of the object space is a positive integer, measured by bytes.

Because OBS bucket storage statistics are measured in the background, the storage information is not updated in real time. For this reason, you are advised not to perform real-time verification on the storage information.

Authorization Information

To call this API, you must be the bucket owner or have the permission to obtain the storage information of a bucket. You are advised to use IAM or bucket policies for authorization. For details about OBS authorization methods, see Differences Between OBS Permissions Control Methods.

• If you use IAM for authorization, you need to use either role/policy-based authorization or identity policy-based authorization and configure the required permissions:
  • If you use role/policy-based authorization (IAM v3 APIs in the old IAM version), you need to grant the obs:bucket:GetBucketStorage permission. For details, see Creating a Custom IAM Policy.
  • If you use identity policy-based authorization (IAM v5 APIs in the new IAM version), you need to grant the obs:bucket:getBucketStorage permission, as shown in the following table. For details, see Creating a Custom IAM Identity Policy.

    Action	Access Level	Resource Type (*: Required)	Condition Key	Alias	Dependencies
    obs:bucket:getBucketStorage	Read	bucket *	g:EnterpriseProjectId g:ResourceTag/<tag-key>	-	-
    		-	obs:EpochTime obs:SourceIp obs:TlsVersion obs:CustomDomain

• If you use bucket policies for authorization, you need to grant the obs:bucket:GetBucketStorage permission. For details, see Creating a Custom Bucket Policy.
